THIS TRANSPORTATION OPPORTUNITY IS FOR DUPAGE COUNTY IL ONLY.
We do not yet have a warehouse location for this year's campaign....but are working on it.
Toys for Tots needs SEASONAL "transportation" volunteers (Oct 1-Dec 30). You will be assigned locations in DUPAGE COUNTY IL - near your home (or work if you prefer) - to drop off supplies (collection boxes, bags and posters) to our registered DROP SITES. You will need to stay in touch with the contact person at your drop sites and then pick up toys when boxes are filling. Toys will need to be delivered to the warehouse (location TBA) throughout the season. All toys and boxes must be returned to the warehouse by December 13.

Mission Statement
It is the primary goal of the Toys for Tots Foundation - as well as the overall Toys for Tots Program - to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them into becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.
Description
Started in 1947 by Marine Corps Reserve Major Bill Hendricks. His wife, Diane, crafted a few dolls and asked Bill to deliver to an agency that supports children in need. When he couldn't find one she said "start one"! That year they collected and distributed over 5,000 toys in Los Angeles. Today there are over 800 campaigns nationwide. DuPage County collected 51,588 toys and distributed them to 27,471 children in 2018.
