Collecting November 10 – December 8
One of the annual community outreach projects Fitwize has participated in, has been the local Toys For Tots drive. Fitwize has served as a local drop-off location for the annual campaign since 2013.
This years collection will begin on Monday, November 10 and we will conclude on Monday, December 8. For those wishing to donate a monetary gift instead, or in addition to a toy, please click here. If you know someone in need that could benefit from the Toys for Tots program, please refer them to the Family Toy Request to submit their application to request toys for their child(ren).

The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community in which the campaign is conducted. The primary goal of Toys for Tots is to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.
