Each year, local organizations and community groups sponsor Christmas toy giveaways, to make sure children in families with limited funds can still believe that a joyous holiday spirit includes everyone, regardless of faith (and if you do believe in Santa, he can always find you). We’re collecting as many of these toy giveaways and events as we can find, and listing them here.
If you know of someone who might benefit from this information, please share it with them!
And if you know of a group hosting a toy giveaway that you’d like to list here, please email Laura@MileHighOnTheCheap.com with all the details.

2025 Christmas Toy Giveaways
IMPORTANT! Many of these giveaways need you to register in advance to secure a time slot. Often that is before the actual event date.
Be sure to click on the “more info” links to verify details, including any residency requirements that might apply to a specific event. Also, you will probably need to bring your child’s birth certificate. It doesn’t matter where the child was born, organizers just need to see them to prove you are the child’s parent or guardian.
The events are in chronological order, so you’ll have to scroll through earlier events to see the later ones.
