Tuscaloosa Toys For Tots

10/15/2026

Our Toys for Tots Holiday Campaign isn't powered from one warehouse or one office.

It's powered by more than 800 local Toys for Tots Campaigns serving communities across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands.

At the heart of each campaign is a local Toys for Tots Coordinator, working alongside Marines, volunteers, businesses, schools, churches, and community partners to make the holidays brighter for children in their own community.

Every campaign may look a little different, but they all share one mission: delivering hope and joy to children who need it most.

Holiday Cheer Kicks Off Here at Toys for Tots—and all across the Nation, local communities are already hard at work making a difference.

Good Morning everyone, I wanted to take a moment and remind everyone that our applications open in just over a day. Please make sure that you sign up as an individual family unless you are an actual 501c3 applying for help. Those who fill out the organization form instead of the family form will be automatically denied. You need to use your children’s actual names and not nick names on the applications. If your child is special needs please tell us about them in the comments section I.e. if your child is autistic and what they normally need. Please understand that thousands of people donate toys and money to make sure children in our community have something under the tree to open for Christmas. Thank you for your time and I hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Buenos días a todos. Quería aprovechar un momento para recordarles que el plazo de inscripción se abre en poco más de un día. Por favor, asegúrense de registrarse como familia particular, a menos que sean una organización con estatus 501(c)(3) que solicita ayuda. Las solicitudes de quienes completen el formulario para organizaciones en lugar del formulario para familias serán rechazadas automáticamente. Es necesario utilizar los nombres reales de sus hijos en la solicitud, no sus apodos. Si su hijo tiene necesidades especiales, por favor infórmenos al respecto en la sección de comentarios (por ejemplo, si tiene autismo o cuáles son sus necesidades habituales). Tengan en cuenta que miles de personas donan juguetes y dinero para garantizar que los niños de nuestra comunidad tengan algo que abrir bajo el árbol en Navidad. Gracias por su tiempo y espero que todos tengan un día maravilloso.

To apply go to TOYSFORTOTS.ORG and request a toy. From there enter your county and state and it will take you to the local unit to apply

Today marks the official kickoff of the 2026 Marine Toys for Tots Holiday Campaign!🎄

Across the Nation, dedicated Marines, local Toys for Tots Campaign Coordinators, volunteers, and community partners are coming together with one shared purpose: delivering hope and joy to children who need it most this holiday season.

While each local campaign follows its own schedule for toy collection, registration, and distribution, one thing remains the same everywhere—the incredible generosity of people who believe every child deserves to experience the joy of Christmas.

Together, we'll help millions of children unwrap more than a gift.

We'll help them unwrap hope, confidence, and the comforting reminder that their community cares.

Thank you for helping us make the holiday season brighter for children and families in need this year.
