North Penn Water Authority Participates in Toys for Tots Program for 27th Year

Lansdale, Pa.—Oct. 15, 2026— For the 27th year, North Penn Water Authority (NPWA) is proud to be a drop off site for The Toys for Tots Program sponsored by the U.S. Marine Corps. The public can drop off new, unwrapped items for a child up to 18 years of age in NPWA’s lobby located at 300 Forty Foot Road in Towamencin, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. now until December 9, 2026.

Donations such as toys, books, board games and art supplies are accepted. Age groups where toys are desperately needed are 0-2 years and 8 years and up, especially 11+ years. Some suggested teen gift examples include: sporting equipment/bags/balls; backpacks, cosmetics, purses, watch/wallet gift sets, bath gift sets, hand-held electronics, skateboards/helmets, curling irons, hair straighteners, and hair dryers.

“For 27 years, participating in Toys for Tots has been a meaningful way for NPWA to give back to the community we serve. Each donated toy brings joy to a child and helps ease the holiday burden for a family. I’m proud of our employees and grateful to our customers and local businesses who support this tradition. Their generosity is what keeps it going year after year,” said NPWA Executive Director, Keith Hass, P.E.

Last year the Toys for Tots of Chester and Central Montgomery Counties distributed over 20,000 toys to families in our area. For more information, please contact Shana Constanzer, Communications Coordinator, at 215-855-3617, ext. 128.
