Toy Room Volunteer's Report Posted by Nancy on: Sunday 01 January @ 18:24:13
Mrs. Santa’s Toy Room Report
Twenty names were on the ConocoPhillips snowman tree. Gifts were donated for 17 of these and Concern provided gifts for the other 3.
St. James Women’s Circle provided gifts for 15 teenagers ages 13 through 17 whose names they were given. These were distributed at Concern.
Concern gave out toys from Thursday Dec. 15 through Thursday Dec. 22. As of Wednesday Dec. 21,105 families with 245 children came in to receive toys. Four of these families’ wish lists were sent over from the CCLC.
A few bags of toys were received from East Cross Methodist Church; three individual donors provided about $600 worth of new toys; one individual provided several bags of “like new” stuffed animals; one individual provided 85 new Beanie Babies of which 65 were given to the CCLC; one individual provided several bags of used toys, many of which were cleaned up and given out; one individual provided several old, unused toys including a huge box of Hot Wheel cars; the Scroll-Saw Club provided a huge box of little wood cars and other wood toys they had made; there was about $650 left from the Wal-mart shopping spree sponsored by Phillips Club with which new toys were purchased; Wal-mart provided a $1000 grant with which new toys were purchased; and there were a few toys donated by a few individuals. A few donations were received after the toy room closed Thursday Dec. 22 and Mrs. Santa retired for the year so she doesn’t know what these were.
Among the many toys given out were: 11 (ages 7-12) small bicycles in daily drawings; 6 skateboards; 7 CD discmen; 8 hand held games; ten $10 Wal-mart certificates; 10 balls; 1 bench press; coloring books and colors; 13 makeup kits; 3 Bratz dolls; 16 Barbie’s/fashion dolls; 12 baby dolls; 1 fire truck; 22 cartoon action figure toys; 4 remote control planes; 4 race car kits; 6 Lego/Megablocks; 10 puzzles; 8 watches; 8 wallets; gloves, hats, socks; 50 or so Hot Wheel cars/wood cars; 3 train sets; 15 board games; 8 My Little Pony sets; 9 magnet sets; 6 DVDs; 7 Play-Do kits; 3 art and craft kits; 4 View Masters; 6 sets of dishes/play food; 10 vehicle playsets; 10 toy playsets; 20 books; about 20 infant toys and 20 toys for ages 3 and under; an assortment of “stocking stuffers” costing $2 or less. Most of the toys cost $10 or under. Each child received a stuffed animal.
Thank you to all who made the Toy Room a big success and have a blessed New Year!
Mrs. Santa
