Fort Worth, TX (Tarrant & Johnson County)

Happy Holiday



WELCOME TO THE FORT WORTH TOYS FOR TOTS OFFICIAL WEBSITE
 
Thank you for your interest in the 2025 Fort Worth Marine Corps Toys for Tots campaign and for considering us to be your charity to support this year!  We are very thankful to have received such a generous response from the community in 2024. Please take a few moments to navigate through the website for most frequently asked questions. Every minute spent on the phone or answering emails is a minute taken away from serving the children.

The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in the community in which the campaign is conducted.

 How to get started?
    Simple... 
 
   
First, decide how you'd like to contribute.  You can coordinate a toy drive in your community, volunteer your time in the warehouse, or provide a monetary donation to support our effort in providing toys to children.
 
If you are hosting your own toy drive, be sure to bring the toys collected back to our warehouse (4501 W I-35 Frontage Rd Fort Worth 76106 Bay door #33) before the end of the campaign. 
 
Note: Toy requests for individual families are all facilitated through local nonprofit organizations of the Tarrant/Johnson County area. We do not personally work with individual families due to the volume of requests we get. If you are interested in receiving toys for your family, please contact your local social welfare organizaion to register with Toys for Tots.
