Stafford’s Government Center Hosting Toys for Tots Collection

The George L. Gordon, Jr. Government Center is hosting a donation site for the annual Marine Toys for Tots drive. Donors may drop new unwrapped toys in the bin in the lobby of the George L. Gordon, Jr., Government Center, located at 1300 Courthouse Road, Stafford, VA 22554. Donations will be accepted through December 9, 2025. The Government Center is open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Last year, the Quantico Marine Toys for Tots drive distributed 146,503 toys to 134,346 children in the area. The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation has run Toys for Tots for 75 years. They have distributed more than 627 million toys to 281 million children to date. The primary mission of the Marine Toys for Tots Program is to collect unwrapped toys and distribute those toys to less fortunate children at Christmas.

There are other ways interested patrons may assist. Your business or organization can host a special event with Marines or become a local drop site. You can sign up to volunteer with the drive. As well you can donate directly online. Visit: https://quantico-va.toysfortots.org/local-coordinator-sites/lco-sites/Default.aspx for more information.
