This National Foster Care Month, Marine Toys for Tots, is providing hope to children who needed most.

Staff Sergeant James Caldwell, who grew up in foster care himself, shares that while handing out gifts at a Toys for Tots distribution event,

a little girl looked up at him, reached into her bag, pulled out a stuffed animal, and said,

That simple gesture embodies the heart of Marine Toys for Tots. Ensuring every child, including those in foster care, experiences the kindness that can transform their future.

You told her that you're tired of the congestion caused by the bike lanes?

No, no.

I didn't say that.

I said to her, you know, they created more congestion.
