No-one Need Wait a Single Moment to Improve the World - Anne Frank

Charity: “benevolent goodwill toward or love of humanity” – Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Each month at Mystic Media, our team reflects on our individual blessings and members are tasked with identifying a charitable cause that resonates with them. We discuss these options during our team meetings and make a choice each month as to which charitable organization can most benefit from a contribution from our team.

As the Christmas season is fast approaching, we chose Toys for Tots as our month of November charity. We reflected on our childhood and felt moved to do whatever we could to give those children being raised in a less fortunate situation feelings of joy and merriment during the holiday season.

Toys for Tots is a longstanding and reputable organization, initiated through the US Marine Corps Reserve, that has been impactful in the lives of children since 1947. With over 272 million children receiving aid through their program, we felt this was an excellent choice for our team.

Toys for Tots provides flexibility in donation efforts to allow you to donate in the way that you feel is most beneficial. One option is to identify a campaign near your geographic location, whereby you could purchase toys from the store and drop them in the donation box by hand. Toys for Tots also allows you to virtually purchase a toy and drop it into a virtual box through their website which is then delivered to a campaign with high need in the country. The program even allows you to maximize your charitable contribution by donating in cryptocurrencies, which is a non-taxable event that will maximize your contribution to the organization.

Mystic Media will continue this monthly tradition as participating in charity gives our team a greater purpose than it would otherwise have. If giving toys to children in need is something you would also be interested in this holiday season, please visit the Toy for Tots website to determine how you can provide support.
