The Giving of the Toys- Holiday Toy Drive

The holiday season has started — and with it comes the annual announcement for The Giving of the Toys!

Date: December 8, 2022
Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm
Location: Baldwin Gym.

For 26 years, this event became one of SUNY Broome’s ways of getting ready for the holidays: more than 60 offices, departments, clubs, athletic teams, and campus organizations gather to donate toys for the Holidays at the Student Center. The gifts are then forwarded to the local Toys for Tots campaign. Often groups bring toys appropriate to their organization: the Maintenance Department donated toy trucks; the basketball teams gave basketballs; the International Students Organization contributed toys from all over the world, etc.

Student Activities is asking you to give again. Each year the need grows and gets even more local, with many of our students in need. Please note that all toys need to be unwrapped.

If your office or group wishes to participate, go to the 2022 Giving of the Toys Donation form. Gifts given on the day of the event will happily be accepted. As in years past, we will have hot chocolate, coffee and donuts, an inflatable snow globe for photos, and a variety of holiday music.

We are also excited to announce an Ugly Sweater Contest to kick off Giving of the Toys! Come dressed to … impress?
