Holiday Toy Drive

Give the gift of helping others this season!

The spirit of the holidays is upon us!

The Shadow Buddies Foundation is once again hosting our Annual Toy Drive benefiting medically-challenged children and children in need— right here in our Kansas City community, as well as in Tampa, FL. We are collecting new unwrapped toys for all ages beginning October 1st through December 1st.

The Shadow Buddies Foundation is a local non-profit children’s charity. Most of our toys that are collected will be distributed by Santa to medically challenged children attending our magnificent “Magical Flight to the North Pole” at KCI Airport on December 12th and Tampa International Airport on December 5th.

This is one of our biggest events of the year! We will also be working closely with hospitals, physicians, Child Life Specialists, and other non-profit organizations in our community to spread the holiday magic and brighten the lives of hundreds of children this holiday season!
