Toys for Tots — both locally in DuPage County and nationwide — has one mission: to bring the joy of Christmas and a message of hope to children in need.

Founded by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve in 1947, Toys for Tots began when Major Bill Hendricks and his wife Diane collected and distributed handmade dolls to less fortunate children in Los Angeles. What started as a small act of kindness soon grew into a national charitable program supported by the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, officially established in 1991.

Today, the organization collects and distributes millions of toys each year to children across America — ensuring that no child is forgotten during the holiday season.

Locally, the DuPage County Toys for Tots chapter, coordinated by dedicated volunteers like Rita Kollias, works tirelessly to collect donations, organize distribution drives, and partner with community organizations to reach families in need. Each toy collected represents more than a gift — it’s a symbol of compassion, unity, and the true spirit of giving.

Learn how you can donate, volunteer, or host a toy drive at https://dupage-il.toysfortots.org/
