Holiday Toy Drive

Help Us Bring Big Time Joy This Year!

When we show kids they are important, they believe in themselves.

Join us as we make the holidays bright for the 12,000+ children experiencing state and tribal foster care in Arizona. A gift of just $125 will buy a bag filled with gifts for the holidays. Help us bring big time joy this year! Because they deserve it all.

Being a #FosterAlly is about more than just toys and gifts.

Help Fill Santa’s Sleigh!

When we show kids they are important, they believe in themselves! Join us at our TWO Fill Santa’s Sleigh events as we pack the TFA Foster Resource Center with toys and gifts for children in foster care this holiday season.

Thanks to AZ Lottery & M3F every gift you bring or dollar you give at these events will be matched up to $50,000!

Amazon Wish lists – The Easy Button

#FosterAllies are some of the most thoughtful gift givers. They always want to know, “What do foster kiddos want for the holidays?” That is why we make it easy. Check out the Amazon Wish lists below for tons of ideas, add a few gifts to your Black Friday cart for foster kiddos, and they will be delivered straight to The Foster Alliance.

Lend a Hand! – Holiday Toy Drive Volunteering

Calling all individuals, families, friends, clubs, churches, and corporate teams! Join the #FosterAlly Squad during the best volunteer opportunities of the year. Together we will:

  •  Pack and pick special gifts for foster children outside
    of Greater Phoenix
  • Act as a personal shopper for foster families as they
    choose the best gifts for the foster children in their
    lives.
  • Help make Fill Santa’s Sleigh events spectacular, as
    we spread cheer and collect toys and gift.

Why? Because children in foster care deserve to feel like “just a kid,” especially during the holidays. Together we will work to help them find their joy!

A very special thanks to our #FosterAlly Funding Partners for making it all possible:
