We joined the Expresso family on air to share the story of We Give Toys: how a grassroots donation drive puts toys, food, and comfort into the hands of children across South Africa, and how everyday people can be part of it.
More interviews and features coming soon. This press wall grows as the mission grows.
We Give Toys was founded with a simple yet powerful belief: every child, regardless of their circumstances, deserves to experience the joy, comfort, and developmental benefits that toys bring. We collect new and gently used toys from generous donors and distribute them to children in underprivileged communities across South Africa.
While toys are at the heart of what we do, we also warmly welcome donations of food, blankets, clothing, and toiletries, because every bit of care helps a child in need.

Every name engraved here is someone who chose to make a child smile. There is always room for one more.
This wall is not about who gave the most. It is about who showed up. Every name engraved here, and every gift given in quiet, helped put a toy in a child's hands.
