The Birthday Toy Drive started in the Summer of 2016 as a birthday party for Tiff & half a birthday for Zoie! Instead of asking for gifts, they donated toys to The Children’s Hospital. They collected over 100 toys and books.
After the first year, they set up dropoff locations throughout Pittsburgh, collecting between 100-150 toys each year. In the second year, they started donating the toys to The Children’s Home of Pittsburgh.
During the 5th year, Tiff decided to host an in-person party to celebrate! With 30+ vendors, live music, face painting, and much more. Despite the rain, they collected over 400 toys and books! Also, raising over $200 with the raffle table.
So far the Birthday Toy Drive has collected over 750 toys and books to be donated!
Every year the event grows bigger and bigger!
