Success Won’t Wait volunteers organized two major donations to the Marine Toys for Tots program. In November 2008, over 2,500 brand new children’s books and coordinating merchandise were donated in Sussex County, Delaware at a toy drive coordinated by Froggy 99.9 radio personality April Brilliant. In December 2008, a second donation of 2,500 books was made in New Castle County. The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation provides happiness and hope to disadvantaged children who might otherwise be overlooked at the holiday season. Toys for Tots delivers approximately 19 million toys to over 7.6 million children each year.
