Established in 2023 as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization.

What a wonderful surprise after nearly a year of waiting—we’ve officially received our nonprofit 501(c)(3) status!

This is incredible news that opens the door for more grants and the opportunity to help even more families in need. As we approach our first anniversary under Toy Drive ‘N Events, we reflect on the challenges we’ve faced while serving children and families for almost 15 years.

Since 2010, our family and I have been devoted to caring for children in need. Launching Toy Drive ‘N Events allowed us to carry on this legacy.

We’ve accomplished so much in a short time, including

• 2024 Breakfast with Santa - Dec 2024, and more.
• Successful Adopt a Family initiative
• Summer Back to School Backpack Fundraiser 
• Mother’s Day Luncheon
• Valentine’s Raffle
• Project Upstart 
• 2023 "Breakfast with Santa"
  

Each event reflects our commitment and love for this important work to our community.

Now, with our 501(c)(3) status, we’re ready to soar while staying grounded. It truly takes honesty, responsibility, and a good heart to make a difference.

We are incredibly thankful for your continued support of our beloved foundation!
