2025 Christmas Program

Thank You For Helping With Our Christmas Toy Program

Every year the AKT Foundation organizes a Christmas Toy Program. The idea is to help as many kids living in poverty get to experience Christmas and not be left out. Last year, we helped 200 children have a Christmas they will never forget. This year we hope to help 250 or more, and we need your help to reach this goal. Below is all the information you need to help this holiday season.

Our program is unique as we work right up until the last minute to help those in need. We appreciate your generosity. We could not do it without all the wonderful people who contribute and donate to this program.
