Members of the club donate toys to help families who are unable to provide gifts to their children - ages 1-14, both boys and girls - during the holidays. We've donated for at least thirty-two (32) years. Members either make the toys or donate toys they purchase. Toys are not just what we all consider toys, but also include jewelry boxes, writing items, blankets, knitted hats & gloves, etc. Members also donate wrapping materials. The elves at the food pantry run out of St. Rose of Lima Church in North Syracuse wrap the toys and organize their delivery.
Normally, the toys and wrapping materials are donated during our annual holiday event in December but since some members cannot attend, we receive toy donations through the first weekend after the holiday event.
Below are photos of our donations for 2018 thru 2023 and in several past years.
We thank everyone who donated over the years.
