The Rock 95 / Kool FM Toy Drive
For 34 years, the Rock 95/Kool FM Toy Drive has been making Christmas dreams come true for children across Simcoe County.
It's about more than just giving gifts — it’s about building a sense of hope and belonging within the community. Each donation, whether big or small, helps ensure that children across Simcoe County experience the excitement and joy of Christmas.
Last year alone, the Rock 95/Kool FM Toy Drive partnered with over 20 different not for profit organizations and was able to help give a Christmas to over 1,500 Children in Simcoe County. And none of this would have been possible without the ongoing support and generosity of our listeners.
This year, we're rallying together once again to bring the spirit of the holidays to kids in need, helping to make sure every child wakes up to a joyful Christmas morning.
How You Can Help
From November 12 to December 19, we’re collecting new, unwrapped toys for children from infants up to 16 years old. You can drop off donations at participating locations throughout Simcoe County, including:
- Canadian Tire
- The Beer Store
- Toys “R” Us on Bayfield Street in Barrie
Thank you to Cedar Pointe Business Park generously provided by Europro for finding a home for our toys this year!
In addition to toy donations, we're also accepting monetary contributions, which give us the flexibility to purchase gifts for children of all ages, ensuring everyone receives something special. Every dollar helps us bring joy to more kids and cover any gaps in age-specific needs. To make a donation, please head to the Rock 95/Kool FM Toy Drive website.
Make a Difference Today
Thanks to the kindness and contributions of individuals and local businesses, the Toy Drive has become a tradition that unites the community. Every toy and financial donation goes directly toward making a positive impact on a child’s life, creating unforgettable moments that will bring smiles on Christmas morning.
This year, the goal is to reach even more children in need, and with everyone’s help, that dream can become a reality.
Join us in spreading holiday cheer. By giving to the Rock 95/Kool FM Toy Drive, you’re not only providing a gift but creating cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
