Looking to spread some holiday cheer for charity? Local toy drives are a great way to give back and keep up Seattle's status as one of the most caring cities in the US.

In addition to the volunteer opportunities, the following organizations are still seeking unused item donations for families and children in need.

🎁 Seattle Children’s | The pediatric hospital allows in-person drop-offs by appointment only on Saturday, Dec. 16. But it prefers donations via its Amazon Wish List that includes games, crafts, and sensory toys.

🎁 Treehouse | Headquartered in the Central District, this organization aids youth in foster care. There’s a holiday wish list — but supporters are also encouraged to host their own drive.

🎁 Wellspring Family Services | The nonprofit whose mission is to end family homelessness has a gift drive through Wednesday, Dec. 20. Shop the Amazon Wish List for items to donate like science kits and Legos.
