For more than a decade, the popular Toy Town program has helped ensure more St. Louis children wake up to a present under their tree on Christmas morning. How can we accomplish this? Through the generosity of our volunteers. To continue to service our community we need your help. By volunteering at our Christmas Toy Town, we are able to direct more of our resources on helping the community. Whether you want to work closely with our clients or behind the scenes, we have a volunteer position for you.
