Our Mission

Sammie's Toy Drive is a specialized toy drive for communities struck by tragedy affecting kids and teens. Instead of providing assistance to the community at ground zero, we deliver the items once people who were not affected have moved on. News patterns do not match with the stages of grief. Our goal is to bring joy and comfort to children who have gone through traumatic experiences and let them know that they are not forgotten.

Why Donate to Sammie's Toy Drive?

Your donation can make a huge difference in the life of a child who has experienced a traumatic event. By donating to Sammie's Toy Drive, a recognized 501(c)(3), you are ensuring that your donation is given to the correct recipients and providing them with a new toy. You can bring a smile to their face and help them feel loved and supported.

How We Use Donations

Donations can be used in 

many ways. A donation of a physical item will be stored and then sent to a community in need around a year following the tragedy. A donation of funds will be spent on items to be sent to the community after connecting with community members to see what they are in need of.

Recognition and Thanks

Sammie's Toy Drive has been recognized in the Uvalde Leader News, the Uvalde Hesperian, Yahoo! News, BNN, MSN, KSHB41 news, KMBC9 news, Fox4 news, KSAT12 news and KENS5 news. While in Uvalde for the first toy drive event, Sammie was given an award by the Uvalde DAR chapter.
