Donate Toys
Millions of Toys for Millions of Kids in Need
Manufacturers, distributors and retailers in the toy industry
can donate toys to The Toy Bank, and we'll get them
to children who are truly in need of play. It's easy!
- Submit a Product Donation Agreement.
- We'll be in touch to provide your shipping information or to arrange
the pick-up of your donation. That's it!
 By contributing toys, you can bring play into the life of a child
in need, expand your corporate philanthropy, participate in an
industry-wide initiative, make room in your warehouse, and possibly
qualify for a tax deduction. Your toys will be given to children
who are living in poverty, rescued from abuse, seeking treatment for
chronic illnesses, and going through other difficult situations. Your
donation will be highlighted here, in our Annual
Report , and in the next Toy of the Year
Awards (TOTY) Tribute Book. See who donated
in 2012 and so far this
year!
