Toys for Tots Appearance Request

KARE 11 is excited to partner with the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve on Toys for Tots again this year. The generous support of our community makes the Twin Cities Toys for Tots program one of the largest in the country – making the holidays brighter for thousands of children in our area.

The 2012 collection will kick off on Friday, November 30 and wrap up on Wednesday, December 19. If you are interested in appearing on a KARE 11 newscast to make your donation, please take a few minutes to complete the following form.

Each year we receive requests from hundreds of generous groups, and we do our best to accommodate as many groups as we can. Because the number of requests is so high, we aren’t able to schedule every group. Therefore, completing this form does not serve as your confirmation; you will receive an e-mail confirmation within the next two weeks letting you know if we were able to schedule your group and if so, the exact date and time of your appearance.
