Make a difference this holiday season and donate to Toys for Tots! Provide joy to children over the holidays.

The holidays might look quite different this year for your family, but the opportunity to make a child’s eyes light up is still there! In fact, this uncertain year is even more of a reason to give back this season. More families are struggling financially and many are finding it harder to get into the holly jolly spirit. There is still a chance to spread holiday cheer, even right here in our community, through Toys for Tots.

Toys

Last year in Manatee County, our area really showed up to give back! 60,671 toys were distributed to almost 14,400 children through Toys for Tots. We know this holiday time has really snuck up on many of us, but it’s not too late to join the gift-giving goodness! Just pick up a new toy and drop it off at one of our 2 convenient locations in Ellenton or on Anna Maria Island!

Easy outside drop off available at both office locations from Monday – Friday 10 am – 4 pm.

Holmes Beach office

5201 Gulf Drive
Holmes Beach, FL 34217

Ellenton office

945 25th Drive East, Suite 10

Or, if you can’t make it to either of our locations to drop off a gift there are convenient ways for you to give online as well! You can make a monetary donation to our local Toys for Tots campaign by clicking this link. Or, you can make a virtual toy drop at their link here!

Whether you’re shopping and dropping in person at one of our A Paradise locations, donating online, or selecting toys virtually- thank you for answering the call and joining us to make this season merry and bright for kids who really need it right here in our vibrant community!

Your kindness is the gift that keeps on giving, and we’re grateful to be a part of the holiday magic.

Happy Holidays from our A Paradise family to yours!

As we hit the mid-point of October and Fall is officially in full swing, it’s undeniable that the end of the year is quickly upon us. A year that has been full of uncertainty, change and for many of us, a lot of canceled plans. Thankfully, there is still time to redeem the last part of 2020 and have the vacation of a lifetime on Anna Maria Island.

Even if you’re a local who can’t travel to visit faraway family, why not have a staycation on Anna Maria Island over the holidays? Make the most of paradise!

Anna Maria Island

There’s no better way to relax and reignite an attitude of gratitude than on our powdery sandy beaches and crystal clear calm waters. You can seek a warm refuge and get some Vitamin-D soaking up the sun, unplug for the day on a fishing charter, or go on a family bike ride to tour the whole island. The best part? Our weather is absolutely glorious this time of year. With our many outdoor activities and plenty of beach spots, you can rest assured your vacation is safe whether you want some outdoor adventure or just a nice spot to catch up on some reading and catch some rays.
