We embarked on a new endeavor with our ministry centers in 2009. Our first Annual Toy Sale offered parents a chance to buy Christmas gifts for their children (ages 2-10) at reduced costs. In doing so, the parents’ dignity was restored. They were able to select the gifts their children would receive and were able to afford the gifts they selected. Parents weren’t just given a handout but a hand-up.

Shoppers were selected from parents who came through the Love Loud Montgomery and Community of Hope ministry centers during the year. Only those with a need for support and services are selected and sent an invitation to participate. In the first year, 300 parents were selected and invited to the Toy Sale.

Though families were offered dignity in purchasing their toys at a cost of $2.00 per child, in 2023, we wanted to bless the families by not charging them for the toys. Families will receive toys for their children and a bag of non-perishable groceries to take home. Eighty families are participating this year, and the cost per family is $250. The families have hand selected the toys their children wanted from an online catalog in October. The toys are already on their way and being delivered.
