The earliest date to apply is November 1st.

Toys-for-Tots is a program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve. Each year they distribute thousands of toys to children whose parents/guardians cannot afford to buy holiday gifts. To apply for toys, please follow this link: perrysburg-oh.toysfortots.org.
