JAYCEE Alumni Education & Library Foundation

1) The JAYCEES try and set-up TOTS For TOTS & TEENS boxes during the month of November & early December as we need to designate stores, offices, retail outlets, ect, early in the process since we traditionally coordinate those destination sites in conjunction with 'adoptive' families in Rhode Island and the U.S. Marines Foundation.

2) TOTS For TOTS & TEENS can also be handled by you and/or your team in assembling decorative boxes for distribution in chosen areas of GIFT collections that emphasize the ages of totters to teens. We can coordinate your team in receiving our Labels to apply on such boxes & bins in preparing the same scenario for eventual holiday displays usually over a two(2) or three(3) week period.

3) Companies, Families, Individuals can also make cash (check) donations and the JAYCEES can purchase such items either as requested or their discretion. These new, unwrapped (required protective items) gifts - TOTS For TOTS & TEENS - are collected by the JAYCEES or dropped-off up to 12/13/24 - they are then loaded in U.S. Marine vehicles & Volunteers and then distributed by a pre-determined list (statewide) to youth & teens as wonderful Christmas & Holiday gifts.
