12th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2024

12th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2024

In memory of Michael Malone, on his 19th Birthday in June, Team Michael and Children’s Cancer Fund present the 12th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive, benefiting the oncology and hematology patients at Dallas Children’s and Cook Children’s.

This year we are asking for toys and Amazon gift cards between now and April 30th. We will make the deliveries to the hospitals with the Children’s Cancer Fund Teen Board.

We have created an Amazon wish list to make things easier.

Toys can also be delivered directly to 3905 Hanover, 75225. These brave patients need things they can play with in bed or inside their hospital rooms. Our goal is to fill the hospitals’ pediatric cancer prize closets with special gifts for the rest of the year.

Thank you for all you have done and continue to do. We are eternally grateful for your support.

With love and hope,

Team Michael and CCF

11th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2023

11th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2023

In memory of Michael Malone, on his 18th Birthday, Team Michael and Children’s Cancer Fund present the 11th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive, benefiting the oncology patients at Dallas Children’s and Cook Children’s. This year we are asking for toys and Amazon gift card donations between now and May 10th. The smallest donation will still make a huge difference. Just like in prior years, we will make the deliveries to the hospitals immediately following May 10th.

This year we have created an online Amazon wish list to make things easier.

If you plan to shop outside of Amazon, here is a list from the two hospitals: art supplies, craft kits, play dough sets, games, over-the-door basketball hoops, character playsets, model magic sets, STEM activities (magnet building and slime kits), and ALL size Legos (Marvel-themed is the most requested). Toys can be mailed to 3905 Hanover, Dallas, 75225. 

These patients need things they can play with, in bed or inside their hospital rooms, especially during this time. Hospitals are limiting the number of people who can visit, especially those who are undergoing treatments that suppress their immune systems. Crafts, games, and toys have never been more essential for these brave young boys and girls. Our goal is to fill the hospitals’ pediatric cancer prize closets with special gifts for the rest of the year.

Thank you for all you have done and will do. Your donations will bring so much joy to these children, and we are eternally grateful for all of your support.

With love and hope,

Team Michael

9th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2021

In memory of Michael Malone, on his 16th Birthday, Team Michael presents the 9th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive, benefiting the oncology patients at Dallas Children’s and Cook Children’s. Given all of the ongoing issues with the Covid-19, we have decided not to host our traditional block party celebration. However, the need has never been greater. So this year we are asking for toys and Amazon gift card donations between now and June 7th. The smallest donation will still make a huge difference. Just like in prior years, we will make the deliveries to the hospitals immediately following June 7th.

Christmas Toy Drive 2020

Foster spearheaded a toy drive in honor of Michael, and raised $3,000 of toys for these kids who are spending the holidays in the hospital. What an amazing young man. We are also so proud to be partnering with Children’s Cancer Fund. We saw two families checking into the hospital today, like we did with Michael in December 2009, knowing that their holidays will never be the same. Proud of Ben and Emory. And wishing any peace these families can find in the next week. Merry Christmas to all of you. And thank you Greg Nieberding for donating the amazing sign!!!

With love and hope,

Team Michael

8th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive 2020

In memory of Michael Malone, on his 15th Birthday, Team Michael presents the 8th Annual Team Michael Toy Drive, benefiting the oncology patients at Dallas Children’s and Cook Children’s. Given all of the ongoing issues with the Covid-19 outbreak, we have decided not to host our traditional block party celebration. However, the need has never been greater. The stress on the children and their families not only dealing with cancer, but now the virus as well, is extraordinary. So this year we are asking for toys and gift card donations between now and June 7th. The smallest donation will still make a huge difference. Just like in prior years, we will make the deliveries to the hospitals immediately following June 7th.

Online gift cards are welcome. Target gift cards are encouraged. If you plan to mail or drop off toys, here is a list from the two hospitals: art supplies, craft kits, video games, play dough sets, games, over the door basketball hoops, character play sets, model magic sets, STEM activities (magnet building and slime kits), and ALL size Legos (Marvel themed the most requested). These patients need things they can play with in bed or inside their hospital rooms, especially during this time.

Hospitals are limiting the number of people who can visit, especially those who are undergoing treatments that suppress their immune systems. Crafts, games and toys have never been more essential for these brave young boys and girls. Our goal is to fill these prize closets with special gifts for the rest of the year.

When these children endure difficult procedures and treatments, their reward is to pick something from a prize closet. Our goal is to fill these prize closets with special gifts for the rest of the year.

We are blocking off the Malone’s street and having fun activities for the children, including a water slide, face painter, glitter tatoo artist and a DJ! Please feel free to pass along this invitation to your friends and family, if they would like to participate.

For those of you that will not be in town or do not live in the Dallas area, you can mail in a Target gift card to the Malones, and we will do the shopping for you!

Any and all toys are welcome. Gift cards are encouraged! They make the best gifts for teenage cancer patients, and we can use them to fill in gaps for toys that are special requests from the hospitals. Think small — things you can play with in a hospital bed.

Thank you so much for helping us continue this very special tradition.

With love and hope,
Team Michael
