The Little Lighthouse Foundation to Host 15th Annual Holiday Toy Distribution
Spreading cheer just in time for the holiday season, South Florida’s beloved non-profit organization The Little Lighthouse Foundation (LLF), is set to host its 15th Annual Holiday Toy Distribution on Saturday, December 14th from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m at Mana Wynwood Convention Center in Wynwood.
Impacting more than 2,500 children from underserved communities across South Florida this season, LLF is set to distribute over 30,000 toys in its largest effort yet—a record-breaking initiative to bring joy and hope to those who need it most. The Little Lighthouse Foundation has joined forces with an incredible lineup of partners this year, including Blacklane, Kingdom Charitable Trust, Joe's Pizza, LaCroix, Icelandic, Raising Cane's, The Kindest Kid, Global Empowerment Mission, and many more, to bring its highly anticipated annual toy drive to life.
Creating a magical winter wonderland for over 2,500 children from underserved communities across South Florida at the iconic Mana Wynwood Convention Center
Due to its outstanding growth and success, this year, LLF is taking over a larger venue - Mana Wynwood Convention Center - transforming it into a winter wonderland, featuring a christmas tree, life-sized snowglobes, arts and crafts stations, photos with Santa Claus and many more surprises. Additionally, LLF is calling the community to take part in their new initiative to Sponsor Five Children - donating $250 for five children to experience and participate in the toy drive. The annual Holiday toy drive has become a staple in the South Florida Community, making a difference to both the children and their families for generations to come.
Prior to the main event, on Friday, December 13th, The Little Lighthouse Foundation will be preparing for the toy distribution at the Global Empowerment Mission Warehouse (GEM) with its dedicated team of volunteers. With their deep commitment to spread joy and create lasting memories, The Little Lighthouse Foundation strives to put a smile on these children’s faces year-round, especially during the Holiday season.
LLF’s Holiday Toy Distribution is only open to the youth from invited LLF Partner Facilities including Breakthrough Miami, Brent Wright Leadership Academy, Carrfour, Easterseals, Educate Tomorrow, Excel Kids Academy, Girl Power, His House, Kristi House, La Salle Educational Center, Lotus House, Miami Children's Initiative, Overtown Youth Center, and Touching Miami with Love and more.
