Toys for Tots, Lieutenant General Pete Osman

admin — Wed, 06 Dec 2017 16:34:40 +0000

Listen to “Toys for Tots, Lieutenant General Pete Osman” on Spreaker.

The holidays will be here before we know it. And the holidays brings the Toys for Tots drive. Delivering toys to an average of 7 million children each year, Toys for Tots welcomes all the help it can get. It began in 1947 with one U.S. Marine Unit delivering 5,000 toys to less fortunate children in Los Angeles and today the organization has representation in nearly 780 communities and all 50 states. Toys“R”Us provides significant support to Toys for Tots and there are ways for your listeners to help out too.
Lieutenant General Pete Osman, USMC (Ret), is President and Chief Executive Officer for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation.
• Local info: General Osman will provide an update on this year’s toy drive in your local market, including the number of children served and status on toy collections, to date.
• The increased requests for toys. Although many of us now see the recession as a thing of the past, those in the lower economic groups have yet to see full recovery. We’ve also have a tremendous increase in support requests for areas impacted by Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria.
• The struggle to raise toys and dollars. In recent years Marines and volunteers have had a number of challenges to raise toys for their annual holiday program. Many families, who have given in the past, no longer have the extra cash to purchase a toy for a less fortunate child.
• How and where to help. Toys are collected at all Toys“R”Us and Babies“R”Us locations nationwide through Friday, December 15, and monetary donations will be collected at all stores through December 24 and online at Toysrus.com/ToysforTots or Toysfortots.org.
• Price Match Promise. This year, Toys“R”Us is also conducting a Price Match Promise that will benefit Toys for Tots. If a consumer finds a better price elsewhere, Toys“R”Us will match it – plus donate $1 to Toys for Tots for every price they match in store — up to $1 million dollars!!

TOYS“R”US CONTINUES TO SERVE AS LARGEST TOYS FOR TOTS PARTNER

Toys for Tots began in 1947 with one U.S. Marine Unit delivering 5,000 toys to less fortunate children in Los Angeles. Today, the organization has representation in nearly 780 communities and all 50 states, delivering joy to our nation’s neediest children. With the significant support of Toys“R”Us over the past decade, the Marines have fulfilled the Christmas dreams of an average of 7 million children each year.

Learn How Your Listeners Can Get Involved in the 12th Annual Celebration by Donating Toys or Cash at Local Toys“R”Us and Babies“R”Us Stores

Lieutenant General Pete Osman, USMC (Ret), President and Chief Executive Officer for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation

STATISTICS ON LOCAL TOY DRIVES AVAILABLE BY MARKET
There are currently 15.5 million U.S. children living below the federal poverty line. Moreover, 1 out of every 3 children lives in a family where neither parent has full-time, year-round employment. Given the current economic climate, millions of children risk disappointment on Christmas morning as their parents struggle to provide the basic essentials of food and shelter for their little ones.
Fortunately, parents can turn to the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation during this time of the year. Unfortunately, toy donations over the past few years have declined, so we are hoping to reach your listeners who may have the extra resources to purchase toys for less fortunate children in your community.

Since 1947, U.S. Marine Corps Reserve units have conducted Toys for Tots campaigns in communities nationwide to bring the joy of the holidays and a message of hope to America’s most deserving children. Last year, Toys for Tots conducted programs in 760 communities – covering all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands – delivering 17.8 million toys to nearly 7 million children. These gifts offer children hope, recognition and a positive memory to cherish for a lifetime. Many of the books, games and sports equipment that we provide make a significant contribution to these children’s educational, social and physical development.

President and Chief Executive Officer for the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, retired Marine Corps Lt. General Pete Osman, discusses how listeners can deliver joy to a child in need in their community this holiday season. General Osman will provide details about the individual need in specific markets, the status of the local toy drive and where listeners can donate. He will also suggest toys to donate that meet Toys for Tots needs in your community. Additionally, General Osman will discuss the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation’s special partnership with Toys“R”Us.

This year, the partnership with Toys“R”Us is entering its 12th year. As the largest retail partner in the history of Toys for Tots, Toys“R”Us, Inc. has launched award-winning campaigns that have raised nearly $42 million and collected more than 4 million toys for the organization since the partnership began in 2004. The success of the Toys“R”Us campaign exemplifies the commitment of corporate partners helping the organization by collecting toy and monetary contributions to ensure every child receives a toy on Christmas morning.

About the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation: The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation is a not-for-profit organization authorized by the U.S. Marine Corps to provide fundraising and other necessary support for the annual U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. Now in its 68th year, Toys for Tots provides joy and a message of hope to less fortunate children through the gift of a new toy or book during the Christmas holiday season.
