The U.S. Marine Corps 2019 Toys for Tots campaign has begun, and Argonne National Laboratory, supported by the Argonne Combined Appeal, is a DuPage County donation drop-off site. Now through Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2019, new unwrapped toys (in original packaging) for children between the ages of newborn and 12 may be dropped into the collection boxes placed at several locations across campus.
Collection boxes will be ready for your donations several locations across the laboratory campus:
- Building 201
- Building 203
- Building 240
- Building 241
- Building 362
- Building 401
- Building 213 Cafeteria
- Argonne Guest House
Monetary donations may be made online at Toys for Tots and will be used to purchase toys for children in DuPage County when shortages occur. Toys must be new and unwrapped (no gift wrapping). Stuffed animals or toy weapons cannot be accepted.
All toys collected will be distributed to DuPage County children in need, and with your continued generosity, these children will have an opportunity to experience the joy of the holidays.
For additional information, contact Emergency Management Officer Mike Pasciak at ext. 2-5179.
