16th Annual Toy Drive - TMC for Children

Brighten a Child’s Holiday: Support Our 16th Annual Toy Drive for TMC for Children

For 16 years, our annual toy drive has brought joy and comfort to children in Tucson’s community hospitals. This year, we are honored to focus on TMC for Children, part of the Children's Miracle Network and a world-class pediatric hospital that serves children from birth to age 17.

Where Your Donations Go

All funds raised will be used to purchase toys for TMC for Children, with a special emphasis on the Pediatric Endocrinology Department. However, the hospital will distribute toys wherever they are most needed, ensuring every child receives a moment of happiness. These toys not only brighten the holiday season but also help stock the hospital’s toy closet, offering comfort and encouragement to children throughout the year.

Why It Matters

The children treated at TMC for Children face serious, chronic illnesses and extended hospital stays. While we cannot erase their pain, these small gestures of kindness bring much-needed joy during difficult times. As someone who has personally navigated the challenges of serious illness, I know how much these acts of compassion mean—and how transformative they can be for families.

Last Year’s Impact

Thanks to your generosity, last year’s toy drive delivered an abundance of toys to TMC’s Pediatric Endocrinology Clinic, benefiting children with endocrine-related illnesses like type 1 diabetes. These toys supported the clinic’s efforts throughout the entire year, providing moments of happiness to countless young patients.

How You Can Help

This year, we need your help more than ever. Economic challenges have reduced donations, but the need remains great. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us purchase toys from TMC’s wish list, ensuring no child is left behind.
