Our story
The U.S Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program was established in 1947 by Major Bill Hendricks and his wife. Major Hendricks and members of his Los Angeles Marine unit collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children in Los Angeles on Christmas Day in 1947. The seed had been planted and Toys for Tots was born. The following year the United States Marine Corps Reserve adopted the program and has been bringing a smile to kids' faces across the nation since.
Today we are a top tier charity with 97 percent of every dollar donated going directly to those in need. Since the programs inception over over 627 million toys have been delivered to 281 million children.
