Giving Together: Holiday Toy Drive in Support of CTV Toy Mountain

 

The holiday season is a time for giving, coming together, and making a difference in the lives of those around us. This year, Solestop and Solestop Run Club are excited to partner with Downtown Markham in support of CTV Toy Mountain and The Salvation Army, helping bring a little extra joy to local families this holiday season.

 

After the incredible support we received during our recent food drive for Markham Food Bank, we are continuing our commitment to giving back to the community that has given us so much.

 

This time, we are coming together to spread some holiday cheer, one gift at a time.

 

Giving Together, Spreading Joy

 

From November 10 to December 7, Solestop will be accepting donations of new, unwrapped toys and gift cards to help brighten the holidays for children and families in need.

 

Whether it's a small toy, a thoughtful gift, or a gift card, every contribution makes a difference!

 

We are collecting:

New, unwrapped toys, Gift cards, Gifts for babies, tweens, and teens, which are especially needed!

 

Donations can be dropped off directly at Solestop during regular store hours. You don't need to participate in our run club to contribute, everyone is welcome to stop by and be part of the initiative!

From Our Community, With Love

 

At Solestop, our community has always been at the heart of everything we do. What started as a shared love for running and bringing people together has grown into something much bigger.

 

Earlier this fall, our community helped us collect 770 pounds of food and essential items for Markham Food Bank. Seeing everyone come together for a shared cause reminded us just how much we can accomplish when we give back together.

 

As we head into the holidays, we are hoping to carry that same generosity and community spirit into our toy drive.

 

A huge thank you to Downtown Markham for bringing this initiative to life, and to everyone who continues to support our community efforts.

 

Whether you are donating a toy, sharing the initiative with a friend, or joining us on December 7, we are grateful to have you be part of it!

 

Giving together, spreading joy. From our community, with love.
