Help Brighten the Holidays for CCC Families: Join Our Annual Toy Drive
Each year, Contra Costa College comes together to make the holidays a little more joyful for student families. Through our Holiday Toy Drive, we are creating moments of celebration for more than 350 children in our campus community, and you are invited to be part of it.
Whether you donate a toy, contribute wrapping paper, or volunteer your time, every gesture adds to something bigger: a season of joy shared across CCC.
What We’re Collecting
We are accepting new, unwrapped gifts for children of all ages. Think in terms of what kids want, need, wear, and read. Gift wrap donations are also welcome.
A few gift ideas:
- Toddlers and Young Kids (0–4)
Art supplies, plushies, toy cars, picture books, learning toys - School-Age Kids (5–11)
Board games, STEM kits, books, sports gear, art and craft kits - Teens (12–17)
Headphones, journals, cozy clothing, skincare kits, blankets
Please avoid weapon-like toys (such as Nerf). Gender-neutral gifts are especially appreciated.
