Toy Platoon Reporting for Duty
Help support the families of those who serve our country
Every day, brave men and women in the armed forces selflessly defend our country and the freedoms we cherish. When they deploy, they leave behind families that often struggle with day-to-day expenses and unforeseen emergencies. Operation Homefront, a national nonprofit organization, is dedicated to providing emergency assistance and morale to our troops, to the families they leave behind, and to wounded warriors when they return home.
Once again this year, Deal$ is partnering with Operation Homefront to launch our 2008 Holiday Toy Drive, running November 16th through December 15th. We hope you’ll join with us to show your support for our troops and their families — simply purchase a toy or care item and drop it off in a “Toy Platoon” collection box located in any Deal$ store. Operation Homefront will collect and distribute these items to military families in your area.
In 2007, Deal$ collected over 500,000 toys donated by our customers for Operation Homefront. The toys were distributed at U.S. military bases stateside, just in time for the holidays. This year, Deal$ has set a goal to collect over 1 million toys and care items for our troops and their families!
Deal$ is both proud and humbled to support Operation Homefront again in 2008. We would also like to thank our customers for their incredible generosity and spirit.
