For over 27 years, Cellular Toy Shoppe in Edmonton has been more than just a store—it’s been a trusted part of our local community. They’ve provided quality service, affordable cellular products, and an honest and helping hand to countless people who needed it most.

Tragically, in the early hours of Sunday, January 25, someone used a vehicle to tear the front door off and completely looted the shop. Every electronic device was stolen, and the damage is extensive. This happened right next to a police station, and while authorities are involved, it’s unclear if justice will be served.

The consequences are devastating:

• The store cannot operate while dealing with insurance, police reports, and building repairs. Store closure is approximately 1-month at minimum

• Two families who rely on this business for their livelihood now face incredible uncertainty.

• 27-years of hard work and dedication have been wiped out in minutes.

Small, family-run businesses like Cellular Toy Shoppe need our help now more than ever. Your donation—no matter the size—can make a real difference in helping them get back on their feet and continue serving our community.

Let’s show our support for a business that has always been there for us. Together, we can help Cellular Toy Shoppe recover, rebuild, and keep their doors open.

Thank you for your support!
