Toys for Tots

Ladyzekke · 12-20-2002, 08:20 PM

If you go to the Excedrin home page and click on the link for the
Toys for Tots (it is a little red train) , Excedrin will donate $1 to the
Marine Corps Toys for Tots program.

There is no cost to you.

www.excedrin.com

It helps the homeless and less fortunate children for those of you who may not know the yearly "Toys for Tots" volunteers for charity here in the U.S.

Hey, and Excedrin costs enough money to us consumers for their aspirin LOL, it's time to make THEM pay!

That's what Christmas is all about. I always try to help out with the local shelters and homes this time of year (I suppose I should all year). There's nothing quite like watching a childs face light up when they get a gift.

Just did it. Excellent link, LadyZ, and a good reminder as to what the true spirit of this holiday is really all about. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I've just e-mailed this to everyone in my address book.

That's a great find Lady Z. When I was in elementary school we had a toy drive for "Toys of Tots" and marines would come out and collect them. We all thought it was neat. You can't believe the mountain of toys we would collect every year. It took 2 trucks to carry them all away every year. This program is probably responsible for me getting involved in "charity" work as I got older. It all started with a program that I could identify with. Toys for kids.

That is so nice Antryg! [img]smile.gif[/img] Thanks for bumping this thread, it takes so little effort to donate with my above link with Excedrin footing the bill, but makes such a huge difference in real kid's lives

I gave five dollars to this fund just the other day. They're collecting for Toys for Tots on campus, and while I may be a stingy git, I'm not a complete Fagin [img]tongue.gif[/img]
