Help South Florida HDI Give Back to the Community In celebration of the holidays, South Florida HDI would like to help kids who are less fortunate than many of us as we partner with Toys for Tots and sponsor a toy drive for this event.  We encourage all attendees to donate a wrapped toy ($10 minimum.)   The mission of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community in which the campaign is conducted.
