Capital Region Toys For Tots Program Kickstarts 2022 Holiday Campaign

MALTA – On Oct. 13, Dunkin’ kicked off the 2022 edition of the Capital Region Toys for Tots program by announcing a $25,000 donation from its local and regional franchisees. 

The donation will be used by members of the Marine Corps Reserve to help deliver cheer to children across New York and brings Dunkin’s total support of the holiday collection campaign to $400,000 over the past 14 years.

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program. Since 2009, Dunkin’ and its franchisees have supported the Capital Region’s Toys for Tots campaign whose collection drive will take place at approximately 400 locations throughout the area. These include more than 100 Dunkin’ restaurants, which will serve as drop-off points for guests wishing to donate new, unwrapped toys. 

Capital Region Toys for Tots and the Marine Corps Reserve will work with more than 250 community agencies across the state to serve more than 200,000 children this holiday season.

Capital Region Toys for Tots is actively looking for local businesses and individuals to provide box trucks and other vehicles to help transport thousands of toys from the former warehouse space in Clifton Park to the new location based in Mechanicville. Interested businesses or individuals can contact Toys for Tots at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. 

Clifton Park & Halfmoon EMS and the Saratoga Sheriff’s Department also provide support to the Toys for Tots campaign. Saratoga County Sheriff Michael Zurlo will host the ninth annual Saratoga County Sheriff’s Department Convoy for Tots on Sunday, Nov. 13 to benefit Capital Region Toys for Tots.
