The 21st Annual Allston–Brighton Toy Drive 🎄

Brighton Main Streets is proud to support the annual Allston–Brighton Toy Drive hosted by State Representative Mike Moran. Each year, this event brings our community together to support more than 1,100 local children, and once again, our neighborhood has shown incredible generosity.

Toy donation drop boxes are available at the following Brighton Main Streets locations:

  • Rockland Trust

  • The Corrib Pub

  • Dorr’s Liquor Mart

  • Brighton Elks

Donations will be accepted through Sunday, December 14, with the Toy Drive culminating in a community event at The Corrib Pub, located at 396 Washington Street, from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM 🎅

Attendees will also have the opportunity to view and enter raffles featuring an impressive selection of baskets assembled by a dedicated team of volunteers working tirelessly on behalf of our community.

We extend our sincere thanks to the many organizations and individuals who make this event possible, including BAIA, the Allston Civic Association, Charles River Health, PSF Community Center, Ward 21 and Ward 22 Democratic Committees, CRI Boston, elected officials, neighbors, and friends.

Again, Brighton Main Streets is honored to support the Allston–Brighton Toy Drive. Kelly McGrath, The Executive Director of BMS says, ‘This cherished tradition continues to bring our community together while providing thousands of gifts to children in need.”
