We are an Official Drop-Off Location for Cradles to Crayons & Toys for Tots!

Every year, our community-driven efforts through our toy and coat drive have been incredibly successful, largely due to your generous support! As official drop-off locations for Cradles to Crayons, we are honored to continuously accept donations at our office throughout the year. Whether it's new hygiene items, books or lightly used coats, your contributions make a real difference in the lives of children in need.

Cradles to Crayons provides children from birth through age 12 living in homeless or low-income situations with the essential items they need to thrive. They collect and distribute items such as clothing, shoes, books, toys, and school supplies, with the goal of positively impacting the lives of children in need.

Thank you for your ongoing generosity and support!

Toys for Tots

We are honored to partner with Toys for Tots as an official drop-off location! From now until December 15th, bring new, unwrapped toys to our office at 34 South Street, Jamaica Plain, Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM. The toys collected will be distributed as Christmas gifts to less fortunate children in Norfolk, Suffolk, and Northern Plymouth counties.

Since 1947, the United States Marine Corps Reserve has distributed over 542 million toys to more than 250 million children across the country, thanks to the generosity of community members like you.

The Marine Toys for Tots Program collects new, unwrapped toys to distribute to less fortunate children at Christmas. Join us in making a difference by participating in our Toys for Tots toy drive. Stay tuned for updates on when we'll begin accepting donations at both of our locations.

Our on-going support

We are proud of our long-time commitment to benefiting kids in need through Cradles to Crayons. Through donations of funds and clothing, we're doing our part to help provide local families with essential items they need. In 2020, our team contributed to the Cradles to Crayons Emergency Essentials Fund.

Community involvement at Focus Real Estate means really getting involved with an organization and giving back in every way we can. We visited the Cradles to Crayons Giving Factory to really understand their mission and see first-hand the good work that this organization does.
