Share-A-Gift Toy Collection

Santa Day pictures was great fun for everyone. We all got together to have a great time and laugh the whole time. The pictures have no been sent out, so make sure you’re looking for the. Besides the Santa Day pictures TrailRidge REALTORS collected toys to donated to Share-A-Gift. This is a volunteer based event where people collect new and gently used gifts for child in need around our community.

Share-A-Gift has been an all-volunteer organization since 1972. Each year their goal is to enough toys to donate to over 600 families. Within these 600 families there are 1500 girls and boys with the ages ranging from birth to 14 years. There is no time to waste when it comes to helping those in need. Because of this they start collecting the week of Thanksgiving and goes all the way through December. When it is time to finally donate all the toys that have been collected, volunteers set up a “Toy Shop” for the eligible parents to come in and “shop” which they can pick out toys their children would like. If they have questions, there are hundreds of volunteers that are willing to help them.

Share-A-Gift does not only collect toys, but they collect books, games, puzzles, and bikes. This organization gives children and families the opportunity to participate in a gift-sharing and give the other children a smile on the holidays. There are over 72 sponsors, benefactors, and partners that take place in Share-A-Gift. Check out the pictures from this years Share-A-Gift.
