Christmas with Nathaniel’s Hope – 2020

Thanks for making Nathaniel’s Toy Shop 2020 such a great success! 

Every December, Nathaniel’s Hope turns an empty warehouse into Nathaniel’s Toy Shop, a toy store for special needs families with financial need to shop for FREE toys for their kids, our VIPs, and their siblings. In some cases, these are the only toys these kids receive at Christmas.

In the midst of the pandemic, the needs were greater than ever. 

We made a pivot and distributed toys through Nathaniel’s Toy Shop Drive-Thru or delivered to VIP homes with our Caroling Caravans.

With your help:

  • WE BROKE A RECORD DURING THE PANDEMIC! With the help of 200 Walgreens stores, 100+ companies & individuals who hosted toy drives, the last-minute toy drive hosted by Slater & K92.3 FM, hundreds of toy & cash donors, & over 500 volunteers we were able to provide FREE Christmas toys for VIP kids & their siblings! WOOHOO! Thank you, friends of Nathaniel’s Hope, we could not have done it without you!
  • We broke our record and provided free toys to approximately 1,700 VIP families.
  • Our Caroling Caravans delivered toys to approximately 400 VIP homes in Central Florida, 35 VIP families on the Space Coast, and 25 VIP families in the Jacksonville area. In addition, families were helped in Lakeland, Tampa area, and even Sarasota.

We are grateful for the hundreds of volunteers that collected, sorted, and packed thousands of toys for our VIP kids and siblings. We could not have done it without those who contributed financially or hosted toy drives and virtual toy drives. 

THANK YOU!
