About Toys for Tots
Christmas is a time of joy, happiness and goodwill. It is a time of giving and helping those that are less fortunate than ourselves, especially impoverished children. For 51 years, one organization... the US Marine Corps, is the unchallenged leader in looking out for needy children at Christmas time. In 1947 Major Bill Hendricks, with the support of members of his Los Angeles Marine Corps Reserve unit, collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children. Bill's program was so successful that in 1948 the Marine Corps adopted it and expanded it nationwide as the "U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots" program. The program has enjoyed the support of an array of notable Americans.... Walt Disney designed the logo. Nat "King" Cole and Peggy Lee recorded the Toys for Tots song. Bob Hope, John Wayne, Brooke Sheilds, Johnny Carson and Garth Brooks, are but a few of the long list of celebrities who have used their time and talent to promote Toys for Tots. First Lady Barbara Bush served as the honorary national chairperson in 1992 and, in her autobiography named Toys for Tots as one of her favorite charities.
