An annual tradition of The Walt Disney Company has kicked off once again. The Disney Ultimate Toy Drive supports the Marines Toys for Tots program by bringing toys and a message of hope to millions of children in need during the holiday season.

With the star of the Disney Ultimate Toy Drive, Disney also shared a new animated spot that celebrates the joy of giving and also hopes to inspire people to give to the Toys for Tots program with the Disney Ultimate Toy Drive.

If you would like to participate in this year’s Disney Ultimate Toy Drive and donate to Toys for Tots, there are a couple of ways to do this.

If you would like to donate a gift at a drop off location in person, the following locations were shared by Disney as locations to do so:

  • Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort, collection bins will be located at the World of Disney store, Star Wars Trading Post, and Hotels of the Disneyland Resort.
    • Guests and cast members can also participate from Dec. 10, 2022, through Dec. 11, 2022, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. PST, when U.S. Marines will be on hand near the Downtown Disney LIVE! stage to accept donations.
  • Disney Springs at Walt Disney World Resort, collection bins are located at the World of Disney store, Marketplace Co-Op, Star Wars Galactic Outpost, and the Disney Springs Welcome Center.
    • Walt Disney World Resort cast members will also be joining the fun, collecting toys in backstage locations across the resort all season long and participating in Disney VoluntEARS opportunities at local Toys for Tots warehouses for children and families in Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties.
  • Most Disney Outlet locations and Disney stores, including the Disney store in Times Square, New York, you can also donate new, unopened, and unwrapped toys!
    • On select Saturdays and Sundays from Nov. 5, 2022, through Dec. 11, 2022, Marine representatives will be making visits to help with the toy collection. Call your local Disney Outlet or store location for more details.

Disney has a very long tradition of supporting Toys for Tots. This goes back 75 years. In the early days of the program, Walt Disney and his studio artists personally designed the original Toys for Tots train logo that is still in use today.

This is a tradition that makes a huge difference in the lives of families every year. Be sure to stop by a drop off location or give online this holiday season!
