Hi everyone,
As we approach the holiday season, let's take a moment to remember the true essence of this time of year: giving, sharing, and spreading joy. In the spirit of the holidays, we are excited to announce our Annual Holiday Toy Drive, a fantastic opportunity for us to give back to our community. The gift of a new toy can make all the difference in a child’s life, especially during the holiday season. Let's make sure every child has a gift to unwrap this holiday season.
Our goal is to collect new, unwrapped toys to distribute to less fortunate children in our community.
How to Participate:
Collection Period: The toy drive will run from [Start Date] to [End Date].
Drop-Off Locations: Collection bins will be available in the main lobby, by the reception desk, and in the break room on each floor.
Types of Toys: We are collecting new, unwrapped toys suitable for children ages 0-16.
Virtual Participation: For those who are working remotely or would prefer to contribute online, we have set up an online wishlist where you can directly purchase toys that will be sent to our office for the drive.
Key Dates:
Kick-off Meeting: We will hold a brief kick-off meeting on [Date] at [Time] to discuss the initiative in greater detail.
Wrapping Party: Join us on [Date] for a fun afternoon of gift-wrapping and holiday treats.
Volunteer Opportunities:
If you are interested in volunteering during the gift-wrapping party or wish to assist in distributing the toys, please reach out to [Contact Person] at [Contact Email].
Let’s all get involved and make this year's toy drive a resounding success. Remember, the joy we give to others is the joy that comes back to us.
Wishing you all a meaningful and joyous holiday season!
Warm Regards,
People Team

How to run a Holiday Toy Drive at work
Organizing a Holiday Toy Drive in the workplace is an amazing way to get your team engaged in giving back during the holiday season. A toy drive offers employees the chance to come together and support a good cause while also creating a positive and festive atmosphere throughout the office.
When planning for a Holiday Toy Drive, it’s important to determine a few key details, including:
1. Finding a charity or organization that your toy donations will go to - research and contact local charities in the area who accept new, unwrapped toys as donations during the holidays.
2. Determining how long your collection period will be - anything from one week to a full month can work!
3. Setting up a planning meeting or team that will lead the toy drive - assign tasks, such as sorting and delivering toys, hosting toy drives with other businesses or organizations in the community, etc., and use this team to brainstorm creative ideas for engaging more of your company’s employees.
4. Promoting the drive - promote on internal communications channels (company intranet, emails) or consider setting up donation boxes around common areas of the office.
5. Making the toy drive accessible to remote teams - determine ways remote team members can contribute to the toy drive. This could be through simply donating to a charity or drive local to them, or coordinating shipping toys to the office.
6. Throwing a wrapping party - wrap up the event (pun intended) with a fun holiday ‘wrapping party.’ Bring the team together to enjoy light snacks and listen to holiday music while wrapping the gifts before delivering them to the receiving charity.
