HeartShare Kicks Off its Annual Toy and Gift Drive

November 27, 2017

Celebrations, Community, In The Media

HeartShare is accepting donations for its Annual Toy and Gift Drive. HeartShare will pick up donations starting Monday, December 11th.

“We are fortunate to have the ongoing support of community organizations and individuals, who give an extraordinary number of gifts each year. However, the need always is great,” explained Danielle Maurice, HeartShare Director of Special Events. HeartShare currently serves over 34,000 children, adults and families throughout New York City.

HeartShare most frequently receives toys, stuffed animals and games for children, but also needs presents for its adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Suitable gifts for that group include warm clothing (size large and above), purses and wallets, CD and DVDs, perfume or cologne, adults board games and gift cards. For needed items, check out HeartShare’s Amazon Wish List.

If you would like to contribute to HeartShare’s Toy and Gift Drive or make a financial contribution, please download reply form here. Toys and gifts should be new and unwrapped. Used clothing is not acceptable.

For all financial contributions, please send to:

Attn: HeartShare Toy and Gift Drive, 12 MetroTech Center, 29th Floor, Brooklyn NY, 11201

If you have further questions, please contact 718-422-3213 or Mario.Principato@heartshare.org.
