Toys For Tots 2010 – Results


This year marked the 63rd Anniversary of the National Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program, which United Way coordinates locally.

This year we distributed toys to 186 families with 448 children!

Families were referred by United Way partner agencies, Head Start, Grand Forks County Social Services or Grand Forks/East Grand Forks Public Schools.

THANK YOU: 

 

-To those in the community who contributed to the drive via monetary donations, as well as through toy donations.

-To the area businesses and churches who served as Toys For Tots collection sites – Columbia Mall, Conlin’s Furniture, Faith Community Church, Family Dollar, Kay Jewelers, Master Bread Outlet, Midas, Old Navy, Pier I Imports, SEI. *Also, special thanks to Troy and friends at Fed Ex.

-To all the volunteers who assisted us with our Toys For Tots distribution.

You have made the holidays very special for dozens of families and children in the Grand Forks community.
