Toys for tots
Bringing holiday joy to local families.
MidWest America Federal Credit Union is proud to announce the return of the Marine Corp Toys for Tots program to Allen County. After a short pause in local operations, the program is back under the leadership of Andrea Ainsworth, MidWest America’s Assistant Vice President of Human Resources, who is now serving as the Allen County campaign coordinator.
Today’s children are tomorrow’s future, and Toys for Tots is committed to helping make that future brighter for those facing difficult circumstances. The program provides more than toys and gifts—it brings hope, encouragement, and a sense of worth to children and families in need.
With today’s economic challenges and the size of our community, the need in Allen County is expected to be significant. Thankfully, more than 70 local businesses have partnered with Toys for Tots, providing over 120 donation locations. New, unwrapped toys for children up to age 18 will be accepted through December 1.
Applications will open November 1st for families to request assistance.
Visit the Fort Wayne Toys for Tots site to learn more, find drop-off locations, or sign up to volunteer.
