Toys for Tots succeeds because many good citizens of Loudoun and Fairfax volunteer to join with the Marines of Detachment 1205 each December to collect, sort, package and deliver toys to needy children.
The 2011 Toys for Tots campaign attracted 85 volunteers from the communities in Loudoun, Clark and Western Fairfax counties.
To volunteer for the 2012 Toys for Tots campaigncome back to this page in September for the link to the Toys for Tots site.
