Where can you donate toys?

Some places that used toys can be donated include charities, hospitals, daycares, shelters and doctors offices. Some charities that accept toys include Goodwill, Toys for Tots, the Ronald McDonald House, Second Chance Toys and Room to Grow.

A lot of charities accept donated used or new toys. Some charities give the toys directly to children, while others resell the toys and direct the profits towards the charity. Donated toys can be claimed as a deduction on filed taxes if they are donated to a tax-exempt organization, as long as a receipt is obtained at the time of donation.

Donated toys should be complete and unbroken. A toy should not be donated if it has been recalled.
