  Frunks of Toys for Tots Charity Meetup (Long Island)

  Sunday, December 11th  / 9am to 11am

  
  

  Welcome all! It's that time of year again. The plan is to meetup at the Sun-Vet Mall in Holbrook at 9am. Roll out at 10am and drive roughly 15 minutes westbound to the parking lot of the Long Island Ducks Stadium. Rain or shine. Marines will be present and available to have pictures taken with them. Toys to be donated need to be new and unwrapped. We are joining up with other car clubs. The drive to the stadium is taking place with police escort. If you can't make the event but would still like to donate toys, you will find a donation box located at the Smithtown Telsa showroom located at 1000 Nesconset Hwy, Smithtown, NY 11767. The box will be there until the day of this event when I'll pick it up and donate it. If you're in Suffolk and can't get to any donation box, then feel free to contact me and I'll try and arrange pick up myself. You're welcome to come meet up at the mall and drop toys with me as well if you can't make the drive over. 

  - Agenda -

  9:00am- Arrive at Sun-Vet Mall

  10:00am- Depart with police escort

  10:15am- Arrive at Long Island Ducks Stadium

  For those not familiar with it here is their mission statement: The mission of Marine Toys for Tots Foundation is to assist the U. S. Marine Corps in providing a tangible sign of hope to economically disadvantaged children at Christmas.  This assistance includes supporting the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program by raising funds to provide toys to supplement the collections of local Toys for Tots campaigns, to provide promotional and support material and defray the costs of conducting annual Toys for Tots campaigns.  Other Foundation support includes providing administrative, advisory, financial, logistic and promotional support to local Toys for Tots Coordinators; managing funds raised and monies donated based on the use of Toys for Tots name or logo; providing other support the Marine Corps, as a federal agency, cannot provide; and conducting public education and information programs about Toys for Tots that call the general public to action in support of this patriotic community action program.

  Less than 4% of donations go to fundraising and overhead. Questions or issues click on the link below to email me or feel free to call or text me at 516.724.4300.
