Get into the holiday spirit to support Toys for Tots. Bring an unwrapped new toy for the US Marines to distribute to children around Singapore. Enjoy some festive treats, meet the US Marines, see Santa and participate in some Christmas activities for the whole family.
Toys for Tots began in 1947 when Major Bill Hendricks and his wife Diane realized that there was no organization for giving toys to underprivileged children. That year, Major Bill Hendricks, USCR and a group of Marine Reservists in Los Angeles collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children. The project was so successful that the Marine Corps adopted Toys for Tots in 1948 and expanded it into a nationwide campaign. From 1947 through 2016, local Toys for Tots Coordinators have distributed 530 million toys to 244 million less fortunate children.
Please note: children must be accompanied by a parent/carer at this event.
