Give JOY with a TOY - Seasonal - November through December

---

Boys 2 Men Girls 2 Women host their Annual Toy Drive to help the forgotten children in Fresno Communities to have a great Christmas year.

 Last year during our Annual Give “Joy” With a Toy Drive, with the help of many businesses Boys 2 Men Girls 2 Women was able to supply toys to several hundred families. This year our goal is to double that amount.  

“While filling our orders we have discovered a major catastrophe. There is a significant shortage of toys for our older children ages from babies up to the age of 17. Have our older children been naughty?” says Joseph Perry, Executive Director of Boys 2 MEN-Girls 2 Women Foundation. “We have more than enough toys for the younger children and not enough for the older ones. We do encourage toy donations for older children as well. Most people are giving toys for children aged infant – 8 years old, however this poses a problem because for the many families who have children aged 9 – 17, we have an extreme shortage. Although we are grateful for every toy we have received, we are contemplating changing the name for next year from Give “Joy” With a Toy to Give “Joy” With a Gift.  We know that the community will understand and hear our CRY for help.” 

The excitement during previous year’s Toy Drive's were unimaginable. Families started lining up as early as 7:00AM with high hopes of having a great Christmas for their children. As families attentively waited in line for hours, the sound of Christmas filled the air. 

Come join us and be a part of the chaos turned into JOY, as each family has their name called to pick up their toys. Boys 2 Men-Girls 2 Women along with Bethel Christian Center believes that without the help and continued support from many businesses during these hard times, the children of Fresno would not have a Happy Holiday.
