It is with a truly heavy heart that we share that our local Tehama County Toys for Tots program will not be active for the upcoming 2026 holiday season. Due to the new coordinators who were recently selected stepping down at the last minute, and the official application window for new leadership has since closed. This is devastating news for our tight-knit community. We know firsthand how deeply our local families depend on this program to bring magic and joy to their children each year.

We wanted to share this news with you as early as possible so that families who rely on this program have the time they need to seek alternative holiday resources. It has been our absolute honor to help build and grow this program over the years. We can only hope that a dedicated leader will step forward next year to carry on this legacy.

With love and gratitude,
The Barley & Soules Family

Hello friends, family and neighbors, we want to share with you that our family has decided to pass the torch of Toys for Tots to a new generation of leaders, allowing us to pursue new endeavors that ignite our passions. After 6 incredible years of serving our community, we are stepping aside as our lives are evolving in new and exciting ways, with my husband Keith's new food kart business JR’s Snack Shack and Mobile Catering taking center stage. Fear not, dear friends, for we have identified a dynamic wife and husba team, who have been integral volunteers, to take the reins and propel Toys for Tots to even greater heights. We are confident that they will be the perfect stewards of this beloved program. As we transition, we hope the community will continue to rally behind Toys for Tots and the new leadership, for it is a testament to the power of collective effort and compassion. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported our family and this endeavor, for it is a shining example that together, we can achieve the extraordinary.

We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to Julie, the owner of Amazing Finds, for graciously allowing us to utilize her building as a toy shop location this year. She demonstrated exceptional kindness and recognized our efforts to give back to the community, ultimately deciding to rent her space to us. The arrangement proved to be highly successful, and we extend our deepest gratitude to her.
