This year, you can make your holiday even more meaningful by combining your love for tattoos with a chance to help children in need. From December 1st to December 31st, bring in a new, unwrapped toy worth $50 or more and receive 10% off your next tattoo. This offer is a token of appreciation for supporting the Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program, which has been brightening the holidays for underprivileged children since 1947.

How Toys for Tots Makes a Difference
The Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program has a long history of helping children who might otherwise go without gifts during the holidays. Each year, thousands of families across the United States receive toys donated by generous individuals and organizations. These toys bring smiles and hope to children facing difficult circumstances.
The program accepts a wide variety of toys, including:
Board games and puzzles
Action figures and dolls
Educational activities and books
Art supplies and craft kits
By donating a toy, you directly contribute to a child’s happiness and help create lasting memories during the holiday season.
How You Can Participate and Save on Your Next Tattoo
Participating in this holiday initiative is simple. Just bring a new, unwrapped toy valued at $50 or more to the tattoo studio between December 1st and December 31st. In return, you will receive a 10% discount on your next tattoo appointment. This offer is a way to say thank you for your generosity and support.
Here are some tips to make the most of this opportunity:
Choose toys that are age-appropriate and in good condition
Consider educational or creative toys that encourage learning and imagination
Avoid toys with small parts for younger children to ensure safety
Plan your tattoo appointment ahead to use your discount within the studio’s guidelines
This initiative not only helps children but also encourages the tattoo community to come together for a good cause.
Why Giving Matters During the Holidays
The holiday season can be challenging for many families, especially those struggling financially. Toys for Tots helps bridge the gap by providing gifts that children might not otherwise receive. Giving a toy is more than just a donation; it’s a way to share hope, joy, and kindness.
Supporting this program also strengthens community bonds. When you donate a toy and get a tattoo discount, you join a group of people who care about making a positive impact. It’s a reminder that small actions can create big changes.

Ideas for Choosing the Perfect Toy Donation
Selecting the right toy can make your donation even more special. Here are some ideas to consider:
Games and puzzles: Great for family bonding and developing problem-solving skills
Action figures and dolls: Encourage imaginative play and storytelling
Educational kits: Science sets, building blocks, or art supplies promote creativity and learning
Books: Picture books or beginner readers help foster a love of reading
Make sure the toy is new and unwrapped to meet the program’s requirements. Your thoughtful choice will brighten a child’s holiday and show that you care.

I’m a Marine, and I’ve always been proud that the Marines were responsible for Toys for Tots. The organization has existed before all of us. 1947. Good job Tony, for participating in this. I knew I picked the right artist. 🤗
