Host a Virtual Toy Drive:

A virtual toy drive lets you donate toys online, making it easy and convenient. Here’s how it works:

1. Create a Wish List: Make a wish list on Amazon with toys for different age groups and needs.  We have also provided a list to help guide you. 
   • 2025 Toy Wish List Here or 2025 Amazon Wish List.
2. Share the List: Invite friends, family, and co-workers to buy items from the list by sharing it via email, social media, or text.
3. Easy Donations: When someone buys a toy from the list, Amazon can ship it directly to Nathaniel’s Hope at 5210 South Orange Ave, Orlando, Fl, 32809 —no need for drop-offs.
4. Track Progress: You can see how many toys have been bought and what’s still needed.

Just a few ideas:

Holiday Party Toy Drive:  Host a holiday-themed party where admission is a new, unwrapped toy.  

Corporate Toy Collection:  Partner with your fellow co-workers and set up collection bins in your office.  You can also combine it with a fun summer office party.

Community Challenge:  Create a friendly competition between local schools, neighborhoods, or sports teams to see who can collect the most toys.  Offer a small prize or recognition for the winning group.

Social Media Campaign:  Launch a social media campaign encouraging people to donate toys.  Share stories, photos, and videos about the impact of their donations and create a hashtag to spread the word.  

Local Store Partnerships:  Collaborate with local retail stores to set up collection bins.  Shoppers can purchase and drop off toys at the store.  Or the store owner can have preselected gifts to purchase at a discount and donate at the same time.
