Toys for Tots Collection at Clemson at the Falls

Join the MBA Student Association's annual holiday project as it partners with the local Toys for Tots office to collect and donate toys to Greenville County children.  Administered by the U.S. Marines Corps Reserve, Toys for Tots is a nationwide program dedicated to providing needy children with holiday cheer.  Toys for Tots' mission is to "collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in the community in which the campaign is conducted."

If you choose to contribute a gift(s), which we hope you do, please make sure that toys are:

*         New &

*         Unwrapped

Please consider contributing a gift(s) to brighten the lives of some local children who might not otherwise receive any gifts on Christmas morning.  Our drop-off box is located in the CATF lobby directly across from the elevators.  The deadline for delivering your gift(s) will be December 20, 2012.
