Charity Details:

The Twin Cities Salvation Army provides toys for thousands of children who may not otherwise receive a Christmas gift. They are one of the largest providers of toys in the area in the area with focus on children 0-14 years old who may not otherwise receive anything at Christmas. Last year, they brought joy to more than 23,000 Twin Cities children. 

All gift donations should be unwrapped; donations will be dropped off at the Salvation Army facility after our gathering. While all gifts for children are welcome and help, the greatest shortage is always for children ages 7-14 (look online if you need guidance for what fits that age group). You may also donate online or provide a check with “Toy Shop” written in the memo line which will then be used to buy the types of gifts they need most.

2025 Board of Directors

I am pleased to announce that we have a new 2025 MN Chapter Board of Directors. Thanks to all who voted to elect our new President, Anita Nelson. We’re excited to have her lead our chapter into 2025. We are also thrilled to add several new voices to our board this year and build a team that can help us transition as we go forward beyond 2025 as well. If you know these women, please congratulate and thank them for their willingness to lead our great chapter through the year.
