Here is a little info about Toys for Tots in Flagstaff:
In 1995 a small band of former active duty Marines under the direction of Mr. Hal Jensen, organized a Marine Corps Leauge detachment with the primary purpose of developing a local Toys for Tots program specifically for children in need in our community. Little did they know that in a few years the local program they organized would grow to the size that it is today.
Today, Flagstaff Toys for Tots is one of more than 700 units nationwide. It is supported locally by the Marine Corps League-San Francisco Peaks Detachment and Marine League Charities of Flagstaff and the generous support of local businesses and individuals. The Flagstaff Toys for Tots mission is clear . . . to collect, purchase and distribute toys to children in need in Northern Arizona during the holiday season.
One hundred percent of funds received locally are used to accumulate, purchase and distribute toys.
Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, an IRS recognized 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity is the fundraising, funding and support organization for the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. The Foundation was created at the behest of the U. S. Marine Corps and provides support in accordance with a Memorandum of Understanding with the Commander, Marine Forces Reserve, who directs the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. The Foundation has supported Toys for Tots since 1991. Ninety seven percent of funds received nationwide go to purchasing toys for needy children.
