Grand Design RV will host the company’s second annual Christmas in July toy drive July 22.
The toy drive will support the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots program. Grand Design said the Toys for Tots program’s goal is to help bring the joy of Christmas and send a message of hope to America’s less fortunate children through a new toy.
The toy drive will take place from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. ET at Grand Design RV’s customer service and support center, 5200 Hoffman St. in Elkhart, Indiana.
Food trucks will be on-site and accept cash donations. Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus will be attending to support the cause and photo opportunities with the couple will be available.
If community members want to participate but are unsure what to donate, Grand Design RV created a Christmas in July Amazon Buyers Guide. Toys donated will directly benefit children in Elkhart County and the surrounding area.
Only new and/or unwrapped toys will be accepted. Neither toy guns, bows, nor arrows will be accepted for donation.
Since 1947, the Toys for Tots program has assisted over 272 million children. The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation is a not-for-profit organization authorized by the U.S. Marine Corps and the Department of Defense to provide fundraising and other necessary support for the program.
