Kankakee, IL – The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation in Kankakee County is calling on local volunteers to lend a hand this weekend.
According to the foundation’s latest update, volunteers are needed Saturday, November 29 at 1:30 p.m. to help unload a Metro bus packed full of donated toys for children in the area. The event offers a fast-paced, fun way to make a meaningful difference for local families during the holiday season.
Organizers say even an hour or two of help can go a long way in preparing the toys for distribution to area kids. Interested volunteers can comment on the organization’s social media post or message the page directly for details.
The Toys for Tots program, run by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, has long served as a symbol of holiday giving—ensuring every child experiences the joy of Christmas morning.
Residents are encouraged to join in and help make this season a little brighter for children across Kankakee County. ❤️🎄
