First off, let me say I sympathize your plight.
Now, lets get rolling..............
Here are ideas that might pan out
Your Church
YMCA
YWCA
Community Centers
Use eBay to get nice things cheaper
Crafts stores for "do it yourself gifts"
Hope Harbor (for both the gifts and even for 'quick paychecks')
It wont take much to get 'something' but you definitely need to scramble to get it done in time.
I truly wish there was more I could do......

Fire Stations and Police Departments also collect toys for your purpose. Your local Chamber of Commerce should know all the different collections going on in the city where you live. For toys, food and anything else you may need during this time of hardship.
