The U.S. Marine Corps has long valued the strong ties binding Community, Country, and Corps, and continually strives to strengthen the connection between America's Marines and the public it serves through community engagement.

Established in 1947, Toys for Tots® is the U.S. Marine Corps' premiere community action program and America's most popular Children's Christmastime Charity.

Toys for Tots® is the combined efforts of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and the Marine Toys for Tots® Foundation. Our mission today is the same as it was in 1947: to bring the joy of Christmas to America's less fortunate children.

Toys for Tots® is a national program with local reach-we have over 830 local toy collection and distribution programs in most major market areas in all 50 states, Washington DC and U.S. Territories, and we annually distribute an average of 18 million toys to 7 million children in-need.

It is the hard work of the Marines and many volunteers, combined with the incredible generosity of the American public and support from national and local partners that allows the Toys for Tots® Program to help so many less fortunate children each year. 

As a valued community partner integral to the success of our program, we greatly appreciate your support and offer this guide to help simplify your engagement with Toys for Tots.
