bringing smiles
to our bipoc
communities
The Twin Cities Toy Drive is a community-powered movement created to bring joy, dignity, and hope to BIPOC children and families across Minneapolis–St. Paul.
What started as a simple idea”collect toys during the holidays” has now grown into a citywide tradition rooted in creativity and care, with local artists and companies designing custom collection boxes that turn drop-off sites into mini art installations reflecting the culture and brilliance of our communities.
More than just gifts, the Twin Cities Toy Drive is about reminding kids that they are seen and celebrated
Our Impact
In just a few short years, the Twin Cities Toy Drive has become a true community staple:
30,000+ toys and donations delivered to families across the Twin Cities
120+ local partners — including small businesses, corporations, and community spaces — serving as collection sites and champions for the drive
10+ community organizations supported, including schools, youth centers, and grassroots groups across the Twin Cities
Every number represents a child who felt loved, a family that felt supported, and a community that showed up for its own.
Donations
This year, we’re excited to support two incredible community partners Agape Oasisand V3 Sports. Both are organizations that are deeply rooted in and uplifting the families of North Minneapolis. We’re honored to have our toy donations go directly to their work, and we encourage you to learn more about the impact they’re making in our community.
