I work for a non-profit agency and we have many poor clients and I am wondering if there are any agencies or services out there besides Toys for Tots that provide toys and other items for the holidays in the Chicago land area.

You can go to the following website for charites in your area. Also, I am looking for an organization where you can sponsor a particular child and give them a toy that they request. I can not remember the name of it, but I would like to participate in it. If you know the name would you let me know via email? Thank You.

I'm sure the religious charities do. You may also want to contact the local shelters (for the homeless, victims of domestic abuse, etc.) Soup kitchens. Orphanges.
I'd go that route anyway as I sometimes grow suspicious of the major gift-giving entities.
I guess the question should be why can't your non-profit do it?
