Disney and Toys for Tots have a long and storied history, beginning way back in 1947 when Walt Disney and his team of animators designed the Toys for Tots logo (the very same logo that is being used today).

The Disney Ultimate Toy Drive program allows for donations to be made in person at Disney Stores, in Disney Springs, or at Downtown Disney. Donations can also be made online via the shop Disney website or app.


Cast Members on both coasts have been hard at work supporting the Ultimate Toy Drive. At Walt Disney World, cast member Jen McKechnie, has supported 100 charities during the Disney 100 Celebration. Her 100th organization was Toys for Tots, where she helped distribute toys donated by her fellow cast members to children and families in Florida.

Over at Disneyland, cast members in the Costuming department have continued their tradition of creating handmade bears and costumes from repurposed fabric to donate to Toys for Tots. These custom bears provide a one-of-a-kind new toy made with care for kids in need.

If you or someone you know is in need of a toy from Toys for Tots, information on the application process as well as where to find a local chapter can be found on the Toys for Tots website.
