~Legacy of Love and Compassion: The Soul 2 Sol Journey~
What began in 2020 as a humble gift of free, new toys to one hundred kids in underserved neighborhoods, has grown into a potent movement that is based on faith, driven by purpose, and thriving through community engagement. Soul 2 Sol's Legacy of Love and Compassion is more than simply a chronology; it is a real-life example of what occurs when empathy takes the lead and involvement in the community becomes second nature.
This is the tale of more than nine hundred young lives to date elevated, touched by generosity, and inspired by hope. From providing bikes and toys to bright-eyed children, feeding families over the holidays, to spreading joy throughout neighborhoods with open arms. Every milestone is a tribute to those who donate, to those who volunteer, and those who believe in our mission for a better tomorrow. As we celebrate the journey thus far, we look ahead with hearts wide open, and gifting toys and sharing joy with children and families.

TESTIMONIAL
It is coming close to Christmas, and I want to thank the Soul 2 Sol organization for putting together the annual toy give away, and providing toys to the kids that may not have a Christmas. I remember as a child back in the fifties when my mother of seven kids could not buy all my sisters and brother’s Christmas gifts. They did not have organizations like the S2S toy drive back then. At least not that I recall. As kids we would look out the window and watch the neighborhood kids play with their new toys. It was upsetting for me. As I grew older, I understood that times were hard back then, and there were not many resources to reach out to.
For three years now, I have been receiving free brand-new unwrapped toys from the S2S organization. I suffered an Aneurysm in 2019 and was not able to work. Because of the Soul-2-Sol toy drive, I was able to get Christmas toys for my grandbabies. I want to thank Carmen and her team for putting a smile on all the kids’ faces who have received toys from their organization in our community.

Did you know that the holiday season is a wonderful time to show how thankful you are for life’s blessings by giving to those who may be having a difficult time? At The Soul 2 Sol Annual Toy Drive, we believe that this is a time when we can come together as a community and make a positive impact on the lives of others. Our organization aims to provide toys to children and families in underserved communities during the holiday season. To date, we have been successful in our mission to spread joy, compassion, and happiness during the holiday season, with hundreds of children benefiting from our efforts.
We are operated entirely by volunteers who are passionate about making a difference in communities of need. We rely on donations from family, friends, and our own personal resources to fund the operations, buy toys, and bring joy to the lives of children. Our commitment to making a difference in the lives of others is an inspiring goal. Since 2020, over 900 children have received new, unwrapped toys from our organization. YOU can help us keep the momentum going by gifting a toy and spreading joy this holiday season! Sincerely, The Soul 2 Sol Team.
“I am incredibly grateful to the amazing team at the Soul 2 Sol Annual Toy Drive Agency, for their generosity and support during the annual toy drive. As a single parent, it can be challenging to provide for my four children, but thanks to this wonderful initiative, each of my kids received two brand-new toys. The joy and excitement on their faces were priceless. The agency’s dedication to helping families like mine is truly commendable, and their efforts made our holiday season brighter and more joyful. Thank you for making a difference in our lives!”
