Trucks & Toys
Our mission with the Trucks & Toys program is to create joy by connecting children in need at local charities with holiday gifts provided by trucking industry professionals.
​
For more than 15 years, trucking companies have pulled together to address the needs of less fortunate families by collecting toys for local, Minnesota charities.
​
Last year we were able to provide toys for over 1,600 kids and teens at charities throughout the state. Charities we served last year were:
​​​
-
Kinship- Bemidji
-
Kinship- New Ulm
-
Kinship- Fairmont
-
Safe Haven Shelter- Duluth
-
Tubman- Minneapolis
-
Youth Link- Minneapolis
-
Breaking Free- St. Paul
-

-
Women of Nations- St. Paul
-
Women's Source

How to Help
​
-
We donate to charities throughout the state. If your company is outside of the metro-area and you would like to volunteer as a collection site, contact the MTA and we will get you in touch with your territory captain.
-
If your company is located in the metro-area, you can volunteer as a collection site. This means individuals and other companies can bring their toys to your company.
-
Make a monetary donation. 100% of pledged money is used to purchase toys for children in need.
-
Donate on an individual or company basis. Simply drop off your non-violent toy donation to the nearest collection site by November 27.
