HYUNDAI OF EVERETT USED CAR DONATION CENTER

Origin and Evolution of Toys for Tots

The Foundation was able to satisfy the six needs identified by the Marine Corps.  First, the Foundation could provide toys to supplement the collections of local units that had fewer Marines due to military cutbacks of the ‘80s and ‘90s.  Second, the Foundation could arrange and pay for the creation, publication, manufacture and distribution of promotion and support materials to Toys for Tots Coordinators.  Third, the Foundation could enable individual and corporate donors to Toys for Tots to take a charitable deduction on their income tax returns.  Fourth, the Foundation could enter into contracts with corporations to conduct promotions, which would produce royalties for Toys for Tots.  (Needs three and four were two important elements of this charitable endeavor that the Marine Corps, as a federal agency, could not fulfill).  Fifth, the Foundation could ensure that the Toys for Tots program operates in compliance with IRS regulations, state laws and regulations and charitable standards.  Finally, the Foundation took responsibility for the day to day operations of the Marine Toys for Tots Program, thus relieving the Reserve Headquarters Staff of that responsibility and allowing them to focus on training, organizing, and equipping the reserve force.

In 1995, the Secretary of Defense approved Toys for Tots as an official activity of the U. S. Marine Corps and an official mission of the Marine Corps Reserve.

In 1996, the Commander, Marine Forces Reserve expanded Toys for Tots to cover all 50 states by authorizing selected Marine Corps League Detachments and selected local community organizations (generally veteran Marine), located in communities without a Marine Reserve Center, to conduct toy collection and distribution campaigns in their communities as part of the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program.

In 1999, the Commander, Marine Forces Reserve delegated authority to the President, Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to approve and manage local Toys for Tots campaigns conducted in communities without a Reserve Unit.

2001: Despite the trauma the nation experienced as a result of the September 11th attacks in New York City, Washington, DC and Pennsylvania, the economic downturn and the anthrax scare, the 2001 U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Campaign was the second best in the previous 54 year history of the program.  Local campaigns were conducted in 388 communities covering all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico.  This was the most extensive coverage to date.

Using Advertising Big Balloons in Business Promotions

Using Advertising Big Balloons in Business Promotions 

It has always been known that advertising is the secret to success in any business. The more you put your message and company logo in front of consumers the more they will learn to recognize your business or your brand.

Can you even imagine TV commercials without any brand names? It would be totally useless if there were just ads for red shirts, blue pants, and sandwiches. All the commercials would end up being the same and no one would pay any attention to them. Commercials need to be created so they attract attention and the message stays in the consumers mind or causes them to take action.

Big balloon advertising can bring about the same effect as a commercial. They are more personal because you can put smaller balloons right in the hands of the person who needs the products and if you use a larger blimp type balloon the effect is the same.

Outdoor balloons are great for branding your business.
