Welcome to the 2018 Toy Drive.

The Lindsay Kinsmen Club, since 1947, has been providing gifts to children in the Kawartha Lakes for Christmas. Last year we were able to provide toys for more than 800 children! That's a lot of Christmas Joy! We wouldn't be able to do it without your support.

Important Changes to the 2016 Toy Drive:

We have BIG Blue Barrels across the City of Kawartha Lakes that are ready and waiting for your kind toy donation.

How do I donate?

Donating a toy:

We have over 60 BIG Blue Barrels located throughout the City of Kawartha Lakes.
When you purchase an age-appropriate toy, you can visit one of our BIG Blue Barrels to place your (unwrapped) toy inside. That's it - we'll do the rest!

Donating Money:

Whether you're too busy to shop or simply have no idea what to buy - we can help! You can always make a quick and easy donation to our PayPal Account, and we’ll use that money to buy a toy for a deserving child.

How to apply?

To submit the name of a child (or children)
to make them eligible to receive toys,
please contact Social Services:

705-324-9870 ext. 3

Please note the intake process has closed for 2018.

Please indicate you wish to apply to the Lindsay Kinsmen Toy Drive.

How can I help?

Volunteering:

We are always looking for energetic people to help us meet our goals.

If you would like to help, we're looking for:

• Toy Delivery
• Toy Pick-Up
• Toy Sorting & Packaging

But the best way you can help is to donate and help spread the word to your friends and family.
