Southwire is excited to announce the return of its annual Toy Drive benefiting Toys for Tots on Thursday, Dec. 7, and Friday, Dec. 8, in Carrollton, Ga. from 7:00 A.M. until 7:00 P.M. (EST).   

Toys for Tots is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity created in 1991 by the U.S. Marine Corps to bring joy to the holidays, through the gift of a new toy and by sending a message of hope to America's less fortunate children.  
 
Southwire’s goal is to collect 5,000 new, unwrapped toys, for kids ages 0-17, and to bring hope to the children of Carroll County this holiday season. Monetary donations are also accepted and are tax deductible. 
 
The Toy Drive will operate in a drive-thru format. Community attendees will drive through a service line, pop their trunks and allow Southwire Project GIFT volunteers to unload toys directly into donation boxes.   

Southwire’s Toys Drive benefitting Toys for Tots is made possible thanks to the generosity of many community sponsors including MedImpact, 3:16 Healthcare, Servpro, Gradick Communications, West Georgia Technical College, Heart Wood Products, Phoenix Wood Products, Tisinger Vance and 2023 Elite Project GIFT Partner, the University of West Georgia, who is partnering with Southwire and Project GIFT to collect toys at this year’s Winter West Wonderland event on campus. 
 
If you are interested in becoming a sponsor or have any additional questions regarding the community Toy Drive, please call the Project GIFT Hotline at 770-832-4729 or send an email to project.gift@southwire.com
