A Look Back at a Heartwarming Community Toy Drive Fueled by Generosity, Partnership, and Holiday Spirit.
December 2023
This holiday season, Rooms To Go proudly launched its first large-scale Toys for Tots toy drive in 12 Rooms To Go showrooms across the Atlanta metro area. In the weeks leading up to the holidays, customers, families, and friends generously contributed new, unwrapped toys for children in need. Whether it was a single toy or an armful, every gift represented a moment of joy waiting to be delivered.
The drive culminated in a joyful, high-energy celebration at our Perimeter furniture showroom in Atlanta, Georgia. With the help of our incredible partner, the Atlanta Falcons, the day turned into something truly special. Freddie Falcon brought his signature fun, while the Falcons cheerleaders energized the crowd with spirit and smiles. Families joined us to play games, try their hand at the football toss, enjoy festive giveaways, and celebrate the season of giving together.
Adding to the significance of the event, members of the U.S. Marine Corps were on-site to collect toys and connect directly with donors. Their presence underscored the purpose of the campaign and served as a powerful reminder of the impact we can make when we come together as a community.
Since its founding in 1947, Toys for Tots, a program led by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve, has delivered hope and happiness to millions of children across the country by providing them with gifts during the holidays. The mission is simple but powerful: to ensure that no child is forgotten during the most magical time of the year. Rooms To Go was honored to support this mission and help extend its reach.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who made this effort possible - from our loyal customers and passionate associates to the Atlanta Falcons organization, whose support through social media, email outreach, and even radio shoutouts helped rally the community. Your generosity helped make 2023 an incredible year for Toys for Tots, and for that, we say thank you.
