TEAM's Facebook page post says in part: 

"As always, this project was an incredible experience for us at TEAM. We could not pull it off without your support, including all of the volunteers who took time out of their busy schedules to help us collect toys, pick up donations, sort, categorize, decorate and organize our toy store, welcome families in, and so much more.

"Thank you for giving of your time, efforts, talents and donations to this project. We hope that each of you found great meaning of the holiday season through Toys 4 Kids."
