Bring a toy and put a smile on a childs face at Christmas.
The U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is now in its 58th year. It is a program dedicated to helping in the development of one of our nations most valuable natural resources - our children. Toys for Tots delivers a message of hope to children who have little reason to have hope for the future. The shiny new toy at Christmas lets these youngsters know that someone cares. Christmas is a time of joy, happiness and goodwill. It is a time of giving and helping those who are less fortunate than ourselves, especially impoverished children. For the past 57 years, one organization-the U.S. Marine Corps- is the unchallenged leader in looking after America's needy children at Christmas.
