Toys For Tots 2020: Where To Donate In Woodbridge

WOODBRIDGE, VA — Prince William County Fire and Rescue and other sites will be collecting toys for children in need as part of the regional Quantico Toys for Tots Campaign. Collections are underway and will continue through Dec. 13.

Toys for Tots is an effort led by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve since 1947 to ensure children in need can feel the joy of unwrapping a toy on Christmas. The campaign draws participation from over 800 communities covering all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

The Quantico Toys for Tots regional campaign draws participation from collection sites in Prince William County and other local jurisdictions. Donations can be made through Dec. 12 at several businesses in Woodbridge.

Donations can also be made at any Prince William County Fire and Rescue offices through Dec. 12.

Last year, the Quantico campaign distributed over 108,000 toys, serving over 106,000 children.

Toys for Tots serves toddlers and youth through age 17. Donations must be new, unwrapped toys. Toys used or considered as weapons will not be accepted. Checks or money orders can also be made payable to Toys for Tots.

Aside from the fire and rescue stations, check other collection sites in Prince William County on the Quantico Toys for Tots web page.
