In 2025, we had over 500 volunteers assist Nathaniel’s Toy Shop and collected toys from more than 130 toy drives. With the help and generosity of the community, we served nearly 2,000 VIP families, bringing toys to VIPs and their siblings in Central Florida and our 9 satellite locations in Jacksonville, the Space Coast, Merritt Island, Palm Bay, Treasure Coast, the Tampa Area, Polk County, Lake County, and Seminole/Volusia Counties.

Host a Virtual Toy Drive
A virtual toy drive is an easy and convenient way to support Nathaniel’s Toy Shop by donating toys online. Here’s how it works:
Create a Wish List
Create an Amazon wish list featuring toys for a variety of ages and abilities. To help you get started, we’ve provided a Toy Wish List and Amazon Wish List with suggested items. You can also share these lists directly with others who would like to participate.
Share Your List
Invite friends, family members, coworkers, and community supporters to purchase toys by sharing your wish list through email, social media, or text messages.
Easy Online Donations
When a toy is purchased from the wish list, it can be shipped directly to Nathaniel’s Hope at:
5210 South Orange Ave
Orlando, FL 32809
There’s no need to coordinate toy pick-ups or drop-offs.
Track Your Impact
Amazon allows you to monitor your wish list, making it easy to see which items have been purchased and what toys are still needed.

Just a few ideas for Toy Drives
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.
