-Receipts are not required for donation made at unmanned collection sites. However, if you would like a receipt please fill out the attached form and submit it to the above address. Our personnel will attach an Acknowledgement of Receipt and forward to the Toys For Tots Foundation. The Foundation will then provide a receipt in the form of a thank you/tax letter or post card.

- All Toys for Tots collection containers are considered unmanned. When personnel are present at a donation drop off site, it is typically for a scheduled event and not to manage the collection container itself; therefore, there is no requirement for a receipt, even though there may be Toys for Tots representatives present.

Donations of Service Support
- Local companies frequently donate service support (warehouse space, vehicle support, promotional support, etc.) to Toys for Tots Campaigns. Many of these companies desire to take a tax deduction for such support. It is important to remind these companies to consult with their tax advisor prior to their donation to verify the legality of taking a tax deduction for their support.

Submit this letter to our local office for endorsement and forwarding to the Foundation. Once the Foundation receives a letter from the company donating service support and a letter from the local Toys for Tots coordinator certifying receipt of the service support, the Foundation sends to the donor a letter of thanks and acknowledgment of the donation for tax purposes.
