Charity Details:
The Twin Cities Salvation Army provides toys for thousands of children who may not otherwise receive a Christmas gift. They are one of the largest providers of toys in the area in the area with focus on children 0-14 years old who may not otherwise receive anything at Christmas. Last year, they brought joy to more than 23,000 Twin Cities children.
All gift donations should be unwrapped; donations will be dropped off at the Salvation Army facility after our gathering. While all gifts for children are welcome and help, the greatest shortage is always for children ages 7-14 (look online if you need guidance for what fits that age group). You may also donate online or provide a check with “Toy Shop” written in the memo line which will then be used to buy the types of gifts they need most.
