Welcome to the 2020 Toy Drive.

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

 

We have BIG Blue Barrels across the City of Kawartha Lakes that are ready and waiting for your kind toy donation. We are a registered charity and are able to issue donation receipts.

Want to donate?

Donating a toy:

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