Join us in supporting our local Boy Scouts of America as they collect toys for the Toys for Tots by donating a new, unwrapped toy to bring joy to children in need this holiday season.
Every toy represents a chance to make a difference and spread kindness throughout our community.
A donation box is located in the foyer at Rusk Intermediate School. Any student from our campus who participate will receive *3 Class Dojo Points*!

**Toys for Tots is a program run by the US Marine Corps Reserve that collects new, unwrapped toys during the holiday season. These toys are distributed to children in need, aiming to bring joy and hope to families who may not have the means to provide gifts for their kids. The program's mission is to inspire young people and help create a sense of community, one gift at a time!**
