Acknowledgements
It is not necessary for us to go beyond our regimes to
do anything for anyone. To serve one does not need a
plan, a time table or a time slot. All we have to do is
observe and be there right on when required.
Various organisations have supported Toybank by
providing us with constant mentoring and helping us to
expand our networks. Some have also provided us
storage space for our toys and given vehicles for toy
transportation. We have received tremendous support
at Toybank, to help us get more toys. Over hundreds
of people have participated in the Toy collection
drives. They have taken the responsibility of their
respective areas of collection and have even rendered
help in wrapping these toys for our beneficiaries. We
have received fantastic Toys from all of them. All of us
at Toybank deeply acknowledge and thank each and
every one of you that has stepped up and taken
action. Thank you to all!
We thank the media for consistently following up on
our work and representing us to the world all through
our journey. Toybank has received tremendous
support from various national and regional level
newspapers and magazines, online media and
electronic media. This has helped increase awareness
among the masses on the importance of play and
leisure in a childs life.
If you or any of your friends/family have any toys (in
good condition), please contact us at
donate@toybank.org or fill in the contact form. We'll
ensure that they reach the truly deserving kids who
can't afford to buy them.

Beneficiaries
The fact that each day we meet and see so many kids
around the slums on Bombay who are either homeless
or left on the streets to fend for themselves, these
kids that sit on the pavements playing with stones or
broken toys or cycle tires, overwhelms us to
immediately fill in that need, the need of a proper and
a rightful childhood. The day every child in this
universe, rich/poor, has his/her childhood back, be it in
terms of Toys, or education, or basic right to survival
and development and that no organization like
Toybank or any other is required to give all that, will
be the day when we would have really accomplished
our goal. We at Toybank think that we are all pieces
of a large jig saw puzzle, the day all the pieces are
put in perfectly and the picture is crystal clear, will be
the day Toybank can shut shop. Life is a wonderful
gift of nature and we can realize it through sharing
and giving. God the Almighty can be witnessed at the
smiles of the innocent faces.
If you would like to receive toys from us, please send
