About Us
Bring a Smile to Every Child
Welcome to Angel's Toy Chest, where we are driven by a passion for helping children in need. Because of our Roman Catholic roots, we share a deep sense of compassion and dedication for our community. Our mission is to collect and distribute gently used toys and baby supplies to those who may not have access to them.
Our volunteers collect and sort through donations of gently used toys and baby supplies to ensure they are safe and ready for use. We also work with local organizations and churches to distribute these items to families.
We strongly believe in minimizing waste, and we make sure everything we collect is put to good use. Join us in our commitment to bringing joy and happiness to children who are less fortunate.
Mission
Angel's Toy Chest is dedicated to bringing joy to every child and family, inspired by the guidance of Jesus. We collect gently used toys and baby supplies and distribute them to families in need, reducing waste and helping the earth. Our mission is to ensure that every child has access to a toy and that babies have the necessary essentials to thrive, all at no cost to families. We are dedicated to making sure that no child misses out on the simple joys of childhood due to financial hardship.
Vision
Our vision is to provide every child with the opportunity to have a happy childhood. By donating your gently-used toys and baby supplies, you can help us make a difference in the lives of children in need. Join us in following Jesus' footsteps by sharing your love, faith, and used items with these children.
Angelina and her little brother Roman
Our Founder
At 17 years old, Angelina Melendi started Angel's Toy Chest, an organization that aims to provide children in need with new/used toys and baby supplies. As one of five children, she knew how important it was to have a community that shared items they no longer needed with others having struggled with the same thing themselves and being blessed to receive hand-me-downs from others when they couldn't afford new clothes and such. Lead by her faith, she knew she could help others in the same way her family was and more by starting Angel's Toy Chest. Please help us expand our mission and help more families!
