What children can do:
Do you have toys in good condition which you want to donate to another child? You are between 3-12 years? Then share your toys and give joy to another child and yourself.
What adults can do:
Do you like handicraft with children, drawing or board game? Baking a cake, cookies or muffins? Come and help us out during the toy exchange party in Green City for the kids!
How does it work?
With the Caritas gift exchange, children can show solidarity with other kids. The spillover of toys that is generated with the 2 for 1 exchange will be for children in need that are also attending the exchange day(they get their voucher for free). Toys that do not find directly a new home at the gift exchange will be collected from the Social Service and directly distributed at Christmas to families in need in Zurich.
Bring 2 Toys
Bring two toys to a collection point and you get a voucher for a single toy in exchange. We only accept toys in good condition. Please note, that we can not accept puzzles with over 30 pieces (except if new and unopened) and toys that are too big and difficult to transport by one single person. We take plush toys, but you don't get a voucher for them.
Collection Time: Monday, 12th of November till Monday 18th of November.
Our Zharity Collection Points:
- Hürlimann area
