Boca Raton Airport to Feature Seven Toys for Tots 2018 Drop Off Locations

BOCA RATON, Fla. (November 13, 2018) – Following up on the success of last year’s Toys for Tots toy drive, the Boca Raton Airport will host seven drop off locations this holiday season.

“This year, we want to collect more toys than before,” said Boca Raton Airport Authority (BRAA) Executive Director Clara Bennett. “A simple toy can make a major difference for a child that might not receive anything if it weren’t for generous contributions to Toys for Tots.”

New unwrapped toys can be dropped off in the lobbies at the following locations: Atlantic Aviation, Signature Flight Support, Boca Aircraft Maintenance, Reliable Jet Maintenance, Privaira Private Aviation and the Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Boca Raton, as well as the BRAA administration building, which is located at 903 NW 35th St. Boca Raton, FL 33431. 

Contributions will be accepted from November 1st through December 3rd. Once all of the new unwrapped toys are collected from the Airport drop off sites, they will be centralized to the BRAA administration building and then picked up by the US Marine Corp.  From there, Toys for Tots will sort, organize and then distribute the donations to local children in need.

“We are calling on everyone to donate at least one gift,” Bennett said. “With this simple act, you can make a child feel special during the holidays.”

Now celebrating its 70th anniversary, the Airport is continuing to carry out its mission of outreach and  giving back to the community through initiatives such as the Toys for Tots toy drive. To take part in the toy drive, drop off new unwrapped toys at one of the Airport’s seven drop off sites from November 1st through December 3rd.
