If you or someone you know have children under 14 and receive benefits from DSHS such as food stamps or TANF, I want to let you know about Toys for Tots, a program which distributes free new toys as holiday gifts to needy children in the community. Toys for Tots in King County is again partnering with DSHS for its holiday toy distribution. Anyone in King County receiving any type of aid from DSHS is eligible to receive toys from the program for their children. You do not need to apply or pre-register. All you need to do is attend one of the distribution events. You may only receive toys once during the holiday season. Please bring your client ID number with you to the Toys for Tots distribution event, to save time. All distribution events are from 9am-3pm. Here is the schedule of distribution events for the 2011 Toys for Tots campaign:
