Here are the preliminary numbers for the 2024 Food and Toy Drive:

Number of families served: 60

Number of children served: 180

Number of different professionals who nominated a family for 2024: 23

Number of families nominated twice (but served once): 6

Communities served: 5

Number of families with more than 5 children: 15

Special circumstances of some of our families: serious illness of a parent or child, special needs of a child, homelessness, children in foster care, and survivors of domestic violence seeking safer lives.

Percent of 2024 nominated families located: 100%

The Christmas holiday is a great time to not only enjoy time with family and friends but to pause and give thanks for the many blessings in our lives. The Colfax County Food and Toy Corporation is doing just that.

Whether you made a donation, pulled gifts, secretly shopped, nominated people, wrapped a gift, donated boxes, loaded or unloaded a truck, borrowed us a truck, brought a loader, delivered, or wished us well….from the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

A huge shout out to every law enforcement agency serving Colfax County (including Conservation Officers from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission), our local United Way, helping elves, and bilingual volunteers.

Thanks to this crew, all of the food and items for over 55 families was distributed in about 4 hours.

Thank you for your dedication to Colfax County.

On top of everything else we always have going on- we had some great help this year for jobs we don’t always think about. We had pallets of food to unload this year so we want to thank Clint Jedlicka and Susan for hauling them and thanks to Bob Healy for bringing his forklift to the party!

Then after we unpack all of the boxes of bulk food, we need the boxes to magically disappear. Thank you to Randy and Ryan Muhsman for doing multiple trips to the recycling center today!

The Elves have officially hijacked this post to share a huge thank you to Zach Johnson, Susan Muhsman, and an amazing group of retired ladies for all of their work on the 2024 Food and Toy Drive.

Thanks to their efforts, over 150 local children will have warm coats, blankets, shoes, warm clothing, food and some gifts to make their holiday season brighter.

Zach has worked to coordinate volunteers and wrappers, picked up donations, coordinated food ordering and delivery for this year’s Food and Toy Drive.

Susan has coordinated collection of boxes, helped with wrapping, helped with food delivery and organization this year.

Susan and Bellyni Maldonaldo were a part of a group of super wrappers who cranked out wrapped gift after wrapped gift for local children.

Food and Toy is a non-profit organization where families must be nominated by a professional in the community who can certify that, without help, the family will not have enough food to get through the Christmas holiday.

Thank you to Zach, Susan, the ladies who pull and pack, and Colfax County for making this another successful year!

Hello everyone!

The 2024 wrapping has been underway for the last two weeks and we are less than a week away from delivering!

We have several families that still need to be wrapped before December 20. Do you, some of your friends, or a community group want to help the community and have fun wrapping?

Message us here or call/text Zach at 402-750-7707 and he can get you scheduled!

Spots are available during the day or in the evening!

Thank you to everyone who has helped us so far!

Do you or a loved one suffer from having too many boxes on hand? Not sure what to do with the boxes from the Black Friday deals?

We have the perfect place! We’re starting to wrap gifts that will go out later this month and would love boxes to wrap with! If you have boxes and would like to donate them, reach out to us! We can arrange a drop off time, or if you’re local we can maybe come pick them up!

(Ideally we’re looking for not overly large/huge boxes but we will take whatever!)
