Ah, I see, I see. I guess each charity is different then. Then poor little boy who gets the Barbie then LOL!

Is Toys for Tots a Christmas thing? It just occurred to me if it's a Christmas thing, then there should be zero chance of offending Jewish and Muslim kids. All my previous examples and experiences are based on a Christmas toy drive thingy.
