More about where to drop-off toys to our Christmas Drive
Sign-up here to receive gifts for your kids... Registration is NOW CLOSED, but our WAITLIST is available until Nov 30th, 2022.
Each year, thousands of families rely on programs like ours to supply Christmas gifts for their kids, and this year has been no exception. In 2022, we reached almost 700 kids registered in less than 24 hours of having our list open, so we are humbly requesting YOUR HELP to assist in supplying these kids with gifts.
We are also collecting donations to help supplement the city's programs, as children ages 12-17, often are forgotten about during toy drive collections, making it difficult for most organizations to support them.
Please consider donating to Our 3rd Annual Toy Drive. We have many options available, making it as easy as possible for our generous donors.
New, never-been-used items only, as these are Christmas gifts, and for some of our kids, it will sadly be all that they receive.

E-transfer is the best way to make a financial donation as it is the only payment method that does not have any administrative fees.
Please send to our business account at helping.toronto.2020@gmail.com which has automatic acceptance so you do not require a password.
If you would prefer to use a credit or debit card to make your financial donation, please follow the link below.
Why not support Toronto's youth while doing your Christmas shopping at the same time? We have gifts for all members of the family available on our silent auction happening from November 25th at 4:00pm until December 4th at 1:00pm. Delivery and pick up options available within the city of Toronto (anywhere with an M postal code).
Text "Christmas" to 647-930-1938 to preview the auction or to place a bid. Alternatively you can email helping.toronto.2020@gmail.com for the website link to bid on your computer rather than your phone.

★ REGISTRATION IS NOW FULL & CLOSED! Please go to the bottom of the page for the waitlist! ★
(We received almost 700 children registered within 24 hours so unfortunately we've had to close the sign-ups for the time being.)
* * *
Gifts are extremely limited, and will be distributed on a 1st come, 1st serve basis. Please ONLY register if you're in great need of gifts for your kids, as many families have little to nothing at this time of year.
NOTE: This year we are only able to serve children ages 1-17 years of age.
★ Registering does NOT GUARANTEE that you will receive gifts. You will be contacted beforehand if you will be receiving gifts.
We're hosting a toy drive on December 3rd, 2022 to collect toys to distribute. The number of toys that we get will determine the number of people we can help. Please feel free to register if you're struggling for Christmas gifts this year, which will be distributed on December 17th, and we will email you a few days beforehand to inform you if you are receiving gifts. Thanks!
Unfortunately our original list has been closed as we had almost 700 children registered within 24 hours... But you may sign up for our WAITLIST in case we have additional resources... You will be notified by email in December ONLY if you are going to receive Christmas gifts from us!
