Ollie’s Bargain Outlet Holdings, a retailer focusing on closeout merchandise and surplus goods, is sharing that it has raised more than $1.1 million for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve‘s Toys for Tots program this year by acting as official drop-off locations for donations and setting up donation collections at its stores’ checkout lanes from Nov. 3 to Dec. 7.
John Swygert, Ollie’s Chief Executive Officer, shares his thoughts on the success of Ollie’s donation efforts: “Partnering with Toys for Tots for the last five years has been an incredible honor, and this year’s record-breaking donations are a testament to the generosity of our customers and dedicated team. Thank you to everyone who donated to support our local communities. Together, we’ve helped make the holiday season brighter for millions of kids and families in need.”
LtGen Laster, USMC (Retired), CEO of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, adds: “In 2024, the Marine Toys for Tots Program reached unprecedented milestones, delivering nearly 25 million toys, books, and gifts to over 10 million disadvantaged children across the Nation. Our mission is to ensure that every child feels a sense of hope for a brighter future, and we are deeply grateful for the unwavering support from Ollie’s. Ollie’s dedication to fundraising and toy collection in their stores makes it possible for us to reach even more children in need year after year, spreading optimism, happiness, and the magic of Christmas to millions of underprivileged children in communities across the Nation.”
