Toy Drive

This holiday season, join us in spreading joy to children in foster care by participating in our Toy Drive for the Borrowed Hearts Foundation. Drop off your donations by December 16 and make this holiday season unforgettable!

Donate Unwrapped Toys this Holiday Season

This holiday season, we’re partnering with Borrowed Hearts Foundation to bring joy to children in foster care throughout our community.

Drop off any new, unwrapped toys at our location between now and December 16, and bring joy to a foster child this holiday season.

Borrowed Hearts Foundation is a local Evansville organization dedicated to supporting children in foster care and their foster families. Since 2016, they’ve helped over 7,000 children by providing:

Clothing and shoes, hygiene items, toys and baby gear, essential supplies, and a loving support system.

For many of these children, a simple toy or stuffed animal becomes something precious—something that is just theirs when everything familiar has been stripped away. Below is a list of suggestions for what to donate, including new, unwrapped toys for children of all ages.

Sunset Cares 

At Sunset Funeral Home, we believe in supporting our community in all seasons of life—not just during times of loss. Foster families face unique challenges, and the children in their care often arrive with little more than the clothes on their backs.a

This holiday season, we have an opportunity to bring smiles to kids who need them most. Your donation—no matter the size—will make a real difference in a child’s Christmas.

Make a Difference Today! Stop by Sunset Funeral Home with your new, unwrapped toy donation. Together, we can ensure that foster children in our community experience the joy of the holiday season. Thank you for your generosity.
