According to Toys for Tots, the goal of the program is to “bring the joy of Christmas” and “send a message of hope” to less fortunate American children.
Trump said that there are many ways to give back to communities all over the world.
“Whether it’s a Christmas gift to a child in London, donating school supplies to children in Africa, assembling comfort kits for troops deployed overseas, or showing kindness to a stranger, your actions can forever change the lives of someone in need,” Trump said.
Toys for Tots, she said, has proven that the idea of giving back is a timeless one and can be done at all ages.
