Share the Gift of Love Through the Armer Foundation Holiday Toy Drive
The Armer Foundation for Kids invites you to help bring comfort, hope, and holiday joy to Arizona children and families facing serious medical challenges.
Our annual holiday toy drive will take place from November 16 through December 18, 2026. During this season of giving, every donation helps remind the families we serve that they are surrounded by a community that cares.
What Is the Armer Foundation Holiday Toy Drive?
The Armer Foundation Holiday Toy Drive is a community-wide effort to collect toys, comfort items, and other thoughtful gifts for local children and families experiencing difficult medical journeys.
Every donated item helps create a joyful and memorable holiday for a child whose family may be balancing medical bills, appointments, hospital stays, and other unexpected expenses.
Whether you donate a cuddly stuffed animal, a creative art set, or a game the whole family can enjoy, your gift sends a powerful message: You are loved, valued, and not alone.
How You Can Participate
Donation Guidelines
To help us safely and thoughtfully distribute every donation, please follow these guidelines:
• Donate new items only. All toys and gifts must be brand new and in excellent condition.
• Leave donations unwrapped. Unwrapped gifts allow our team to match each item with a child based on their age, interests, and needs.
• Choose gifts for all ages. We welcome donations for children ranging from newborns through teenagers.
Additional Items We Are Collecting
In addition to toys, we are collecting practical and comforting items that can help children feel cared for throughout the holiday season:
• Cozy socks and blankets
• Pajamas and pajama pants
• Hair accessories
• Coloring books, crayons, and art supplies
• Puzzles, books, and games
• Stuffed animals and other comfort items
• Gifts and activities appropriate for teenagers
Why Your Support Matters
The holidays can be especially difficult for families caring for a child with a serious medical condition. Gifts and holiday traditions may take a back seat as parents focus on medical care, household expenses, food, transportation, and other necessities.
By supporting the Armer Foundation Holiday Toy Drive, you are helping ease a small part of that burden. Your generosity allows families to create joyful holiday memories while reminding them that their community is standing beside them.
How the Toy Drive Works
Getting involved is simple:
1. Choose a participating drop-off location. We are partnering with local businesses throughout the community to collect donations. A complete list of participating locations will be available on our website.
2. Donate your items. Bring your new, unwrapped toys or comfort items to a participating business between November 16 and December 18 during its regular business hours. Look for an official Armer Foundation Holiday Toy Drive collection box.
3. Help us spread the word. Share the toy drive with your family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors. The more people who participate, the more children and families we can support.
Share the Gift of Love
Every toy, blanket, book, and comfort item collected has the power to make a child smile and help a family feel supported during a challenging season.
Together, we can make the holidays brighter for Arizona children and families facing serious medical needs.
Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and continued support of the Armer Foundation for Kids. We cannot wait to see how much holiday joy our community can share!
