4,155 Smiles made by the Jax Woodworkers Club Elves

        On November 9, 2024, Jax Woodworkers Club was honored to be able to donate 4,155 toys to seventeen area organizations that help children. In the past 30 years, JWC has donated more than 65,000 toys. Each agency sent a representative to pick up toys to help the children get through the trauma they are experiencing in their lives. The toys bring a smile to their faces and many moments of fun and imagination that carries them away from their troubled lives.     

Below is a list of the agencies - most have a link to their site:

Each one is different and made with love.
