WHAT: Community Outreach: Replenishment Event for the Children of Tondo
WHEN: Tuesday, May 29 (8:00am – 12:00nn)

Philippine Toy Library (PTL) is a non-profit organization, that creates safe play spaces where children from marginalized communities can play for free. With the vision of ‘happiness through play’, we invite you to help make a dent in the poverty of play, one toy library at a time.
 
Every year or every 2 years, we visit our existing sites in order to promote children’s welfare, to check the toy library physical status, to strengthen the relationship among our community partners, and to conduct children related activities where we bring more toys and implement our activities such as storytelling, games, arts and crafts. 
 
HOW CAN YOU HELP?

*perform storytelling which will be enjoyed by the children
*participate and join the children with the games
*assist us with distributing materials, books, toys, prizes etc.
