The Community Toy Store is a place designed to serve families that are having a difficult time financially during the Christmas season. We take brand new toys, clothes, and gift cards and sell them at least 75% off the original price to families in need. All money raised is then donated to Rebound of Whatcom County and The Whatcom Dream, organizations working to break the cycle of poverty and supporting families. The philosophy is simple, we want to offer a hand up in place of a hand out, helping to preserve the Christmas spirit and the dignity of parents during tough times. We also offer free gift wrapping and childcare while the parent(s) shop.

We have had several meetings over the course of the last month or so to look at ways to make the Toy Store even better next year! I will post them as they are decided but one of the things we are working on right now is formulating a committee. We see this as a way to expand the Community Toy Store even more into the community by allowing the community to have a voice in what future Community Toy Stores look like.

Let me know if you may have an interest in being a part of this process…
