Toys For Tots is a wonderful charity, and I was voluntold (by my wife) that we were going to spend an afternoon working at the warehouse.

I grudgingly accepted (great cause, but I have to leave the house?!?), and then promptly had a blast!

I highly recommend the experience.

Here is my interview with Ed Zaleski, the Pinellas County Toys For Tots Coordinator.

Big opportunity here: They need a more permanent warehouse location, something with around 15k square feet (although double would be better). Also, a forklift or two would be miraculous. Indoor plumbing would also be fantastic!

So if you know someone who has either and would be willing to donate it part-time (or even full-time!) to Toys For Tots, please contact me at 813-489-9789.

If we can finagle a more permanent location, I’d also love to have local (especially Veteran) trades (construction, plumbers, air conditioning, electrical, etc.) to volunteer some help upgrading it.
