In what has become something of a Christmas tradition, NASA Southeast and NASA Texas are going to be collecting toys at upcoming events for people in need.

NASA Southeast’s Santa’s Toy Run is now in its 16th year, and this year’s event will take place as always at the December NASA Southeast event at Road Atlanta Dec. 7-8, 2024.

NASA Southeast and Toy Run organizer Ron Rigdon have carefully chosen its beneficiaries: A Friend’s House, Henry Haven House, Gateway Domestic Violence Center, Gwinnett & Fulton PADV, Peace Place, Salvation Army Red Shield Services, Hopewell Children’s Outreach Program, and VFW National Home. Every contribution made is 100 percent tax-deductible and a trustworthy recipient.

NASA Texas Regional Director works with local Toys for Tots office. NASA Texas collect the toys and bring them to the Toys for Tots office in Austin. Last year, NASA Texas attracted 214 unique entries across their HPDE, Time Trial, and wheel-to-wheel classes. This year’s collection will take place at the NASA Texas event at Eagles Canyon Raceway November 22-24.

If you are in the Southeast or Texas regions, be sure to bring something for the charities to benefit this year.
