Our holiday drive, benefitting the City of College Park Youth and Family Services, has been making a difference in the lives of local children for more than 20 years. Join the tradition and donate a gift to help make the holiday season brighter for children in need.
To help make a difference, request one or more gift bag(s) using the Terp Toy Drive donation form. The bag you fill will come labeled with an age range, along with a list of suggested gift items.
You may also make a donation by purchasing a gift on the Amazon Wish List, which will be delivered to our service desk.
If you are unsure about what age range a particular item falls into, don't worry, our committee checks each bag and re-sorts donations, if needed.
You can drop off bags at any residence hall service desk, or fill out the pick-up request form to request a bag/gift pick up from an on-campus location.
Request to fill a gift bag using the donation form.
You will receive an empty gift bag.
Deliver your filled gift bag to any residence hall/community service desk or request a pick up by filling the pick-up request form.
