About Us
The Oswego County Children’s Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to providing Christmas toys and gifts to children in Oswego County.
Each year, we host a Toy Giveaway Event at the SUNY Oswego campus, where parents can select Christmas gifts for their children.
This year’s event will take place on
Sunday, December 14, 2025, at Swetman Gym.
Please note: This event is by appointment only. Families must pre-apply to participate.
Only parents or documented legal guardians may apply for children from newborn through 16 years of age.
Each family must use their own email address and phone number, as all communication will be sent
via email or phone.
The Children’s Fund will accept applications for up to 1,500 children this year. Once that number is reached, the application page will close. Please remember that this is a one-day event. Applicants must attend the Giveaway at their assigned appointment time to receive gifts.
The Children’s Fund accepts monetary donations, as well as toy/gift donations, throughout the year. Please make checks payable to Oswego County Children's Fund, Inc. and mail to: PO Box 951, Oswego, NY 13126.
Toy donations are also accepted through Amazon using this link: https://a.co/5G8Z5Az. All orders will be automatically delivered to the Children's Fund.
Please contact us at: contact@oswegochildrensfund.org
with any questions or to arrange a toy donation.
The Children’s Fund is looking for volunteers to help with setup, sorting, and counting toys. If you’re interested in volunteering, please sign up on our Volunteer page. We need volunteers both during the week leading up to the Giveaway and at the Giveaway Event on December 14th. If you have any questions, please email us at: contact@oswegochildrensfund.org
