SUMMARY:Toys for Tots - Moore County 2026
DESCRIPTION:Help Toys for Tots fulfill its mission to provide toys to the economically disadvantaged children of Moore County by donating money. This allows us to purchase toys at cost (in bulk) for children ages 9-15. Your Moore County Toys for Tots campaign is underway! You will start seeing collection boxes for new\, unwrapped toys in the community. The funds stay in Moore County and are used to purchase toys in bulk. The collection boxes are typically open through December 15th. \n\n\n\n“As the festive season quickly approaches\, children are getting excited to see what Ol’ St. Nick will bring! Sadly\, for children whose families face the challenges of poverty\, they don’t experience the magic of Christmas in the same way. You can be the difference for these children\, ensuring that they have gifts to unwrap and smiles to share on Christmas morning. Every toy\, every contribution\, and every act of kindness counts.” \n\n\n\nThank you for considering a donation!
