Toy Drop Off?

[wildflowersoul.livejournal.com]

Is there any place in the Davis area accepting toy donations this week?

I've searched the Toys For Tots website, but there are no drop-off locations in Somerville, and I'm hoping to not have to lug stuff across the city if I can avoid that.

I am coordinating the drive for my office, and we are dropping off right across the street at the trooper barracks in Medford. Is that any more convenient for you?

Otherwise, here is what is IN somerville: http://toysfortotsma.org/index.php?id=8&page=15

Thanks for the link, I totally didn't see that on the TFT site, that's what I get for googling too early in the morning. That is perfect!

toycycle option...

Also, if they are used toys you can post what you have on the Yahoo group "ToyCycleMassachusetts." Here's the url: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ToyCycleMassachusetts/

There's a drop-off box at Wainwright Bank. The Somerville drive is called Toys for Local Children rather than Toys for Tots.

There's also a box at City Hall. Last year (and probably this year) there was a box at the TAB building (and once there was a box at Traffic and Parking). I think boxes are at all city buildings.

Which means it is not actually TFT, yanno.

This may explain why the Somerville drive has a different name from those in Medford and other neighboring cities.

If you bring a new toy to Chipotle on the 18th (I think), you get a free burrito.

there is a toy drop off box in the lobby of the BSC Sports Club (no need to be a member just to dropoff a toy in their box).

the Somerville Homeless Coalition is right in the square, as well. (One Davis Square)
