November 19 – December 20, 2024
Various Locations
The CTV Toy Mountain Campaign is back for its 29th year, spreading holiday joy to children and families in need throughout the Greater Toronto Area. Starting on November 19 and running until December 20, Toy Mountain is inviting the community to come together in the spirit of giving by donating new, unwrapped toys or making financial contributions to support The Salvation Army in delivering holiday cheer to families who may be struggling.
With the rising cost of living impacting many, this year’s Toy Mountain campaign is more important than ever. The goal is to provide gifts to children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers, ensuring that no child is left out. Toys, games, and donations collected go directly to families who may not otherwise be able to afford holiday presents. Every gift, whether big or small, makes a difference and contributes to a holiday season filled with hope, happiness, and the magic of giving.
Donating is easy, with multiple ways for individuals, families, schools, and businesses to contribute. Supporters can drop off new, unwrapped toys at various participating locations or make financial donations online, which allows Toy Mountain to purchase age-appropriate gifts where they are needed most. The CTV Toy Mountain campaign website provides detailed information on drop-off locations and the types of gifts needed for different age groups, making it simple to contribute thoughtfully. Financial donations are particularly helpful, as they give the campaign flexibility to meet specific needs and ensure every child receives a special gift.
