Happy Birthday, Tad's Toys!

Today is our one year anniversary! I can't believe it! What better way to celebrate than to look back at what we've been able to accomplish in our first year?
  • We have donated toys to 11 rescues/shelters around the Houston area.
  • Around 1500 pounds of toys have been delivered to animals sitting in cages/kennels waiting for someone to take them home.
  • Each bag contains around 50 toys, as a guesstimate average, so together, we have donated around 800 toys to homeless animals over the past year.
  • You could say that 800ish animals have been given a toy to play with and forget for a while that they are homeless. That's 800ish animals that have been loved by all of us...that is a LOT of love that was so easy and simple to give.
Y'all...that is...AWESOME. Together, we have accomplished something truly great...something that I hope continues to grow. Isn't it neat to know that animals that you've never met or even know existed are sitting in their kennels/cages playing with a toy you've purchased and donated to Tad's Toys...and while they're enjoying that little bit of love you shared, they are forgetting that they are homeless...THAT is why I do this. THAT is why you donate...THAT is love.
