Our Toy Store was created to help be a part of a healing process of the family unit. It helps restore dignity and self esteem of the parents while aiding the children in regaining respect for them. It also teaches priorities and sacrifice. I pray you will join us in making a difference in the lives of many.

Should you have any questions or would like to volunteer an hour of your time. Please, feel free to contact me at 262-6438 or via e-mail at Chitownladee@hotmail.com.
I am so excited and looking forward to what God has in store for us.

Please keep us in your prayers as we continue to minister to those in need.

Thank you,
Teri McDonald

Our Toy Store is an awesome avenue God graciously provided in answer to my prayer 12 years ago, an avenue that paves the way to begin the healing process of the family unit. It helps restore the dignity and focus of the parents while aiding the children in regaining respect for them. It also teaches priorities and sacrifice. I pray you will join us in making a difference in the lives of many.
