Toy Drive Rules
We have partnered with Children’s Medical Center in Dallas for our Toy Drive. We call all our Charge fans to action to help bring joy to these children by bringing BRAND NEW, STILL IN THE BOX toys to the game. After we have collected all the toys, our Charge players will deliver them to the hospital and play with the children. Our players are really excited about getting this opportunity so we would like to go to the hospital with as many toys possible!! The link below is to the CMC’s Wish List, but we mainly just ask that the toys be BRAND NEW, as we cannot accept used or opened toys.
