CHENEY, Wash. — Eastern Washington athletics announced today its partnership with the EWU Veterans Resource Center and Spokane Toys for Tots and will help expand the charity's capacity to receive donations. EWU will be collecting donations at five men's and women's basketball games this season. 

At each Eastern game, there will be designated collection boxes at the main entrance and student entrance of Reese Court where fans can drop off toys. On non-game days, a Toys for Tots box will be located at the entrance of the Physical Education Building. Donations can also be taken to the campus EWU Veterans Resource Center in Showalter Hall.

Fans who donate an item to Toys for Tots will receive a future BOGO ticket voucher.

Toys for Tots has been helping the community since 1947, providing children from low-income homes with presents for the holiday season. 

Eastern's Veteran Resource Center has previously partnered with the charity, helping to provide 8500 children with toys from their drive in 2022. 

The deadline for Toys for Tots donations is December 16th. Toys will be delivered to Toys for Tots in Spokane by December 12.
