Countdown to Christmas Charity Drive 2008 – Marine Toys for Tots

November 21st, 2008

Donate to Marine Toys for Tots

Toys for Tots

As a mom, it breaks my heart to see that so many children in need.  Even in this society where 11 year olds have Blackberry’s and 8 year olds rock designer kicks, yes, there are too many children who just don’t have the advantages that many of us take for granted.

000802_c658_0009_csmsThis holiday season, let’s band together to bring a smile, some love, courage and laughter into a child’s life.  Remember, a child has no control over the circumstances he or she is brought into.  How is her happiness on Christmas worth any less than the happiness of any other child?  Even if we can all donate just a little bit, together we can make a huge difference, and maybe even start a domino effect of giving, helping and good karma.

For many families, it’s just not possible to give their kids the Christmas they want so desperately to give.  Marine Toys for Tots has worked over the years to keep hope and the magic of Christmas alive in the hearts of needy children.

Join me in donating to Marine Toys for Tots, a CharityNavigator.com top-rated organization, and lauded for bringing happiness to needy children from all around.  Every few dollars helps.  If 100 people donate $5 each, well, that’s $500 right there that’ll go towards bringing a LOT of smiles to kids’ faces.  Bring a toy to a local drop off like Toys R Us or Babies R Us, but please make every effort to join me in donating a few dollars to Toys for Tots and support their mission of making Christmas a magical time for everyone.
