Join the Xmas Toy Drive



Each website involved in this program administers their own mini-contest and results are displayed on this website and on an image that is posted on each participating website. Running your part of the contest is not too hard. You will need a PayPal account to receive payments and you will need to maintain a topic in your forums that list the names of donees and amounts that they have sent to you. Look below for a template. It usually takes 10-15 minutes a day to handle the daily donations and reporting on your own website.

The admin will need to locate a charity and inform their members of how and when the donation will proceed. We encourage a group event for both the shopping spree and the final donation. The admin will also be in charge of entering daily totals to this site for tracking purposes, and for taking photos of the spree and drop.

Shoot us a message telling us who you are and which group you represent. We can usually respond quickly.
