Holiday Toy Drive for the Kids at Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital

Why this one is close to our hearts

I’m Lauren, a mom here in Mechanicsburg. Last December, our daughter Jordana was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a childhood cancer, when she was just one year old.

This holiday season, we want to give back to the kids and families going through it alongside us.

So we’re hosting a Holiday Toy Drive benefiting Penn State Health Golisano Children’s Hospital in Hershey. Our goal is big on purpose: we want to fill an entire U-Haul van with new toys by December 10, 2026. We can’t do it without our neighbors, and we would be so grateful for your help.

What to donate

• New toys only, for children and families cared for at the hospital.
• Please leave them unwrapped. Donations shouldn’t be wrapped, labeled, or gift tagged.
• Donations are due by December 10, 2026.

Collecting a lot of toys?

If your office, team, church, school, or neighborhood is gathering a bulk donation, we’re happy to arrange a pickup. Just text (717) 609-6059.

Please share it

Sharing this page or the flyer with a friend, your group chat, or your family group is one of the easiest ways to help us fill the van. Thank you for loving on these kids with us.
