Dear Toy Closet Program Donor,

This year, the Toy Closet Program supplied more than 338,000 toys to locations in the Hospital, Emergency Departments, and the numerous Out-Patient Pediatric Clinics from New London to Greenwich. As the Hospital System expands, the Toy Closet Program expands with it. We support 13 locations in the Hospital and 14 out-patient locations. Yale New Haven Health and dedicated staff continued to provide excellent pediatric care, and we assure them of a good supply of toys. The Toy Closet Program also funded $59,000. in grants to the Childrens' Hospital. Your generous donations allowed us to supply infant car seats, support pediatric diabetes and child abuse programs, infant swaddling blankets, noise reducing artwork, and so much more. The Toy Closet Program touches many people, either giving or receiving toys and we appreciate you being a part of this particularly important community. We need your donations this year to restock the warehouse, which is empty for the first time ever. Please continue to support the Toy Closet Program with your toy drives and donations. The Yale New Haven Hospital has announced that they will not accept toy donations this year, but the Auxiliary Toy Closet Program will accept them gratefully. We want to continue to put a smile on every child's face. 

You can donate directly to the Toy Closet Program at this link: https://YNHHToycloset.givesmart.com For those donors who are more comfortable shopping online, you can continue to purchase toys from the links we have provided below. We included the most popular toys on the Wish List, and we trust that you will inundate the Program with boxes! https://www.myregistry.com/organization/yale-new-haven-toy-closet-new-haven-ct/2591843
