Brookpark OH

 The mission of the Toys for Tots program "is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in the community in Cuyahoga County.

We are looking forward to an even better year than last when we were able to provide over 40,000 children in the Cleveland-area toys! Please read the sections below for more information about our program. (Posted dates are tentative but will not change significantly).



Toy Collection Boxes
The Marine Corps' Toys for Tots program collects new, and unwrapped, toys from the local community through events and toy box donations. If you would like to sponsor a Toy Drop Box, please fill out the form above. We do have a relatively limited number of boxes at our disposal and take careful consideration with the selection of those businesses/organizations who will receive said boxes. We do encourage businesses/organizations to create their own festive box for collections but do ask that they register with us before collecting. This will prevent any confusion about the intent of the collection box. Collecting toys under the Toys for Tots logo without turning the toys over to the Cleveland Toys for Tots program is fraud. Box Distribution will begin in Mid October. The option to request a Toy Collection Box will be removed on October 21st. Toy Collection box can be picked up at the local reserve station in Brookpark between 9am - 1pm Tuesday-Thursday.  If you choose to collect toys utilizing our Toy collection Boxes you will be required to pick them up and upon completion you will need to drop them off at our designated warehouse. All collections must be turned in no later than December 6th in order to allow us for distribution.  

Event Support
Toys for Tots Events are some of the best events of the Christmas season. We love them and Cleveland loves them. Businesses and Organizations may put together a Toys for Tots collection event and the Marines can come out to support them. The event is really only limited by your imagination. However, Marines may not endorse a product or service during their support of the Toys for Tots program. We have many wonderful event requests each year and are not always able to support all of them. Please note there will be a limit on the number of events we can perform due to limited personnel and vehicle support. The last day to request Marines to attend an event will be December 1st. After that time we will be extremely busy focusing on collections and distributions of toy requests.

Volunteering
We welcome those members of the community who wish to volunteer their time in support of our program.  Your Cleveland Toys for Tots program could use assistance with:
Counting and Sorting toys at the Storage Center
Toy Collection (Box Pick-Ups) and
Toy Distribution. 

Request A Toy

We will begin accepting toy requests on October 1st. The cutoff date for all requests is October 15th or once we meet maximum number of requests. 

Unfortunately, we will NOT be able to distribute toys to Non-Profit organizations, we are directly working with individual families. If you are a non-profit organization and have families requesting toys through your organization please direct them to the website. 

Families will be able to pick up their toy requests up until December 17th.

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays this season!
