The annual Toys for Tots drive is currently underway, and there are a lot of local drop-off locations where you can donate a toy, helping to ensure that so many Brooklyn children have a bright holiday.

Last year in New York City, Toys for Tots collected and distributed more than 250,000 toys, which they aim to surpass this year — which can’t happen without your help. As you’re checking names off your holiday shopping list, consider adding one more toy to your shopping basket, and know you’ll be bringing a smile to another child’s face this year.

You can bring a new, unwrapped gift for children up to age 12 to one of the following locations around Brooklyn. Find a full list of drop-off locations around the city here.
