Operation Homefront has joined forces with Dollar Tree to launch its annual Holiday Toy Drive to collect gifts for military kids. Operation Homefront field offices and volunteers across the nation are teaming up with local Dollar Tree stores to collect purchased toys between now and Dec. 3 to be distributed to the children of service members this holiday season.
This year marks the ninth annual joint campaign by Operation Homefront and Dollar Tree to support military families during the holiday season.
Anyone wishing to make this year’s holidays brighter for military families can go to their local Dollar Tree store and purchase toys to be distributed to the children of U.S. service members.
More information on the Holiday Toy Drive is available online at www.operationhomefront.net/holidaytoys. OperationHomefront.net also accepts online contributions for all of Operation Homefront’s programs to assist military families.
“Our military families do so much for all of us, and our annual Holiday Toy Drive is just one way that we honor and thank them by helping to make the holiday season special for their children,” Operation Homefront President and CEO John I. Pray Jr. said. “Your purchase supports the Holiday Toy Drive by helping us bring joy to [the children] while alleviating some of the pressure on tight budgets for their parents during the holidays.”
You can donate at any Dollar Tree store in the greater West Palm Beach area.
“Dollar Tree is a proud, national sponsor of Operation Homefront,” said Chelle Davis of Dollar Tree. “We are honored to participate in this program and thank our customers for their generosity and support.”
Thanks in large measure to the tremendous support of Dollar Tree patrons, in 2014 Operation Homefront’s Holiday Toy Drive collected 7.8 million toys nationwide for military kids.
