Toys for Tots 2020

Tank Tops Flip Flops Newsletter edition no. 190

As we all know this was a very challenging year. So many families were devastated by the economic shut downs. So it was more important than ever, to hit a homerun on this year’s TOYS FOR TOTS. Well, let me tell you, it was a MASSIVE SUCCESS. Who needs a party? Because of so many people’s generosity, we were able to distribute over 3,000 toys here in our local communities.

Words do not even begin to express the happiness in these children’s eyes, when Santa Claus came to town. Thank you to everyone who dropped off toys at our various locations, and to so many of you who sent us money as they could not be here in person. As you can see by the photos, I had an absolute blast purchasing over 1200 toys myself. I think I am the Walmart Shopper of the year for 2020! Extra Extra Extra special THANKS for all the volunteers who made this a reality, by spending so much of their holiday time, wrapping, loading and delivering toys, even on the day of Christmas.
