Toy Shops
Because Hope is A Must
MUST serves almost 21,000 children a year, a heartbreaking reality in these desperate economic times. At MUST, our team of volunteers and staff members go beyond the basics to offer extra services to the children we serve each year. Christmas morning is exciting for the 4,000+ children whose parents come to shop at one of the MUST Toy Shops. Children in Cherokee and Cobb counties receive toys, blankets, hats, scarves, gloves, underwear, socks, and a family game. Thanks to thousands of donations, the Toy Shops are well stocked for each parent to make special selections for their children!
*Children from 0 - 18 years old are eligible for MUST Toy Shops.
