Description
The Marine Corps Reserve and Toys for Tots has been making a difference in the lives of American families by helping to bring the joy of Christmas. Through the gift of new toys to less fortunate children, they send a message of Hope at Christmas time. Their local campaigns happen every year all over the country including DC, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Toy collection starts in October through mid December and toy distribution takes place mid to late December.
With our event, we would like to encourage you to take part in your local Toys for Tots campaign or start your own. We will be hosting a virtual 5K and 10K. A portion of each registration will go directly to the Toys for Tots program. You can also make an additional donation before you complete your registration or by clicking here.
