Catholic Charities, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Sponsors St. Cloud Area Toys for Tots

Catholic Charities Emergency Services, in conjunction with the Valhalla Detachment of the Department of Minnesota Marine Corps League, annually sponsors the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program for children in the St. Cloud area who would not receive a gift without this program.

Deliver new, unwrapped toys to any of the Toys for Tots Marine drop boxes located throughout the community as early as possible, as client distribution begins December 13. Emergency Services prefers to have toys placed in these drop boxes. 

Emergency Services is accepting toy donations on Mondays from 10 am to 3 pm, Wednesdays from 10 am to 6 pm and Fridays from 10 am to 3 pm at the loading area of 157 Roosevelt Road, Suite 100, St. Cloud, Door D (back of building). Please do not leave donations outside our doors, as they must be collected by Catholic Charities staff.

The 2022 holiday season marks the 75th anniversary of the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program.

Online registration for the St. Cloud Area Toys for Tots program continues through Friday, December 2. For more information about registering, drop-off locations and donating to St. Cloud Area Toys for Tots, visit ccstcloud.org/toysfortots.

About the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program

Toys for Tots, a 75-year national charitable program run by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, provides happiness and hope to less fortunate children during each Christmas holiday season. The toys, books and other gifts collected and distributed by Marines and volunteers offer these children recognition, confidence and a positive memory for a lifetime. We believe it is such experiences that help disadvantaged children become responsible citizens and caring members of their community. For more information, visit toysfortots.org.
