National Grant a Wish Holiday Toy Drive
November 12-December 15
Join us in spreading holiday cheer! Donations will support local charities selected by the participating Western branch.
What is the Holiday Toy Drive?
The Grant a Wish Toy Drive is a national initiative by Western Financial Group Communities Foundation to bring joy to children and families this holiday season. From November 12 to December 15, 2025, we’re collecting new, unwrapped toys to support local charities across Canada.
Our Goal
Collect 2,000 toys to make the holidays brighter for kids in need. Every toy donated helps a child experience the magic of the season.
How to Participate
- Drop off new, unwrapped toys at participating Western Financial Group branches.
- Each branch partners with a local cause, ensuring donations stay in your community.
- Suggested items: new and in original packaging, non-violent toys, games, puzzles, baby up to pre-teen items, and gifts for all ages.
Toy Drive Drop-Off Locations
Not all branches are collection sites. Please call ahead to learn about drop off hours, benefiting charity, suggested toy types.
