Toys for Tots


Children are one of our nation’s most valuable resources.  Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders – civic, business and social.  Alarmingly, approximately 13 million America children live in poverty.  Studies reveal that growing up in poverty can have an adverse psychological impact on a child.  One of the adverse impacts is low self-esteem – a by-product of little or no hope for the future.

Each child has a choice of two paths to the future.  One path leads to a productive life as an asset to the community.  The other path leads to a life of dependency on the community for support.  Without outside help, the path of least resistance is too often the path to a life of dependency.

I've already donated 1 toy for a girl - 1 toy for a boy.

I know times are hard, but imagine how hard they are for children with NOTHING!

The toy doesn't have to be expensive - Go to the $1 store.




Whatever you do, please find a child to give to.

Thank you,
Natalya
