Toy Lift Charities believe that every child is entitled to a happy and enriched childhood. Our mission is to support local families through volunteerism, community cooperation, morale building, and educational tools. We seek to provide that support through all of our events throughout the year.

The purposes and objectives of the Charity are to:

  • Provide toys and books to area children ages newborn through 8th grade
  • Seek charitable contributions of money, toys, books and other needed items
  • Seek volunteer assistance from the community
  • Not interfere with any governmental or community agencies already assisting area children

Our service area includes the City of Charlottesville and the Counties of Albemarle, Buckingham, Fluvanna, Greene, and Nelson.
