What are some ways to donate toys to needy families?

Ways to donate toys to needy families include donating to resell organizations such as Goodwill or the Salvation Army, donating to local shelters or holding a toy drive. Toys for Tots, Ronald McDonald House and Loving Hugs are national charities that accept toy donations.

Another way to donate toys to needy families is by adopting families. Organizations such as the St. Vincent de Paul Society and Hope for Children Foundation provide Christmas baskets for needy families that include food, household items and clothing along with toys. Volunteers receive donations, assemble baskets and deliver baskets. Some local churches also adopt families, and people can find opportunities to donate locally.
