Our mission

We keep gently used plastic toys out of landfills by donating them to children in need.

What we do

Second Chance Toys (SCT) rescues and redistributes gently used plastic toys to children in need through local community organizations while at the same time, helping our environment.

We conduct major toy collections through community-wide efforts during Earth Week (Apr) and Year-End Holidays (Nov/Dec).

With growing awareness and interest in our work, we have secured corporate grants enabling us to continue growing the 'clearinghouse' model connecting toy donors with collectors and collectors with recipient organizations.

We've completed major Earth Week and year-end holiday events with Kohl's, Viacom, Johnson & Johnson, Kidville, and P&G (Old Spice).

By providing the necessary resources, educational support and facilitating essential connections, SCT empowers families, schools, local businesses, religious/community organizations, mommy groups, and Girl Scouts among many others, to create their own local toy collection programs to drive impact and outcomes.

Please join us in our movement!
