Kim McDonald head coordinator with Northwest Kansas Toys for Tots states that Toys for Tots, a 70 year national charitable program run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve provides happiness and hope to less fortunate children during each Christmas holiday season. The toys, books and other gifts collected and distributed by Marines and volunteers offer these children recognition, confidence, and a positive memory that will last for a lifetime. We believe it is such experiences that help disadvantaged children become responsible citizens and caring members of their community.
Each year, the Marine Corps fulfills the holiday hopes and dreams of an average of 7 million less fortunate children in nearly 800 communities nationwide. Since 1947, over 244 million children have been assisted.
Anissa Pfeifer, Mrs. Kansas 2018 is excited to be a part of the racing program for the evening and states that In our area we serve over 1000 families each year and the numbers are continually growing and we could not be more thrilled to host this event because EVERY child deserves a little Christmas and the best part is we are coming together as a community to make that happen for those children. It is truly a gift within a gift to be a part of this organization and this community.”
Please join us trackside for championship night plus help us make a difference in a child’s Christmas this year.
