TEX REYNOLDS’ TOYS FOR TOTS NEEDS SUPPORT

The Tex Reynolds’ Toys for Tots workshop is currently open from 8:00 to 11:30 a.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays to prepare gifts for Christmas. Days are reduced to Wednesdays only from June through August. New volunteers are always welcome. The mission of Tex Reynolds’ Toys for Tots is to serve Racine County families by providing Christmas toys to those in need. Registration for children from birth through age 10 begins in October. Flyers with details are distributed throughout the community in September. For the past 90 years, this hometown organization has relied on the community for donations of new, used and repairable toys of all kinds. Toy donations for the program can be taken to any Racine County Fire Station east of the interstate, dropped in the red shed at Kortendick Ace Hardware at 3806 Douglas Ave (place in red shed) or brought to the workshop during business hours.

Monetary donations are also vital to support the operation of this non-profit organization and can be mailed to Tex Reynolds’ Toys for Tots – 800 Center Street – Racine, WI 53403.

For more information, please review the other pages on this website, call 262-633-1379 or send an email to tft.racine@att.net.

THANK YOU!!!
