Toy Run Charity Cape Town - Sponsorship

The Toy Run Charity (Cape Town) is now in its 36th year of operation and has collected and distributed more than 500,000 toys (over 286,000 since 2006 alone) to children in orphanages, homes, places of safety, impoverished and previously disadvantaged communities. The Toy Run is considered an 'iconic' city event, and brings together people from all communities, in a common effort to bring happiness and support to the most vulnerable sector of our society.

Primarily, we need funds in order to sustain the operations of the charity, to launch our safety and training for youth initiative, to hold the various toy collection and distribution events during the year, and particularly to host the main toy collection event held in November - this year on the 18 November 2018 at Killarney International Raceway.

We also hold the national trademark and can leverage our countrywide presence to the benefit of a suitable national sponsor.
Please advise if you are able to sponsor this wonderful cause.

Alternatively, if you would like to arrange collection points for toys at your offices, please contact me. We require new and good second-hand toys (not broken). Below are suggestions:
