Burien Toyota, Chevrolet: Seattle Area Drop off Locations for Toys for Tots


Burien Toyota and Burien Chevrolet do much more than sell vehicles. Burien Toyota (or should we say “Toy-ota?”) and Burien Chevrolet are a part of the Burien community who have supported the community for many years. And while these dealerships do a lot to give back, it is now the time of year when many focus on the most vulnerable of our community: our community's children.

Burien Toyota and Burien Chevrolet dealerships are drop-off locations for nationwide Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots program. New and unwrapped toys can be dropped of at both of these locations through December 22.

“Here at Burien Toyota, we are involved in so many community programs, but Toys for Tots has to be one of our favorites,” said Nathan Ayers of Burien Toyota. “Maybe it’s because of the holiday season, maybe it’s because Toys for Tots is all about bringing joy to kids. It’s probably a combination of both. We love being a drop-off location knowing that we are making it easier for our community to give to kids who may not have a whole lot this holiday season. Together, we can make a difference to a lot of kids.”

Toys for Tots was founded in 1947 and has since become the “unchallenged leader in looking after America’s needy children at Christmas.” The program has collected and distributed more than 407,000,000 toys!

“Burien Toyota and Burien Chevrolet are proud to be a part of such storied program as Toys for Tots,” said Ayers. “Bring one toy, bring lots of toys. Either way, you will make some child’s Christmas a little be brighter.”

Toys can be dropped off at Burien Toyota from now through Dec. 22. The toys will then be collected and distributed to needy children by enlisting the help of local social welfare agencies and churches.
The Toys for Tots literature says it best: “Christmas is a time of joy, happiness, and goodwill. It is time of giving and helping those who are less fortunate then ourselves, especially impoverished children.”

Join Burien Toyota and Burien Chevrolet in helping our community’s children by dropping off a toy today!
