Recycling?

 In a effort to cut down on waste and do our part to help the environment, the UPS Store  @ 955 Mass Ave.  gladly excepts recycled peanuts. Please make sure the peanuts   are "clean", and in a clear plastic bag or a brown box. Both these products will be   recyled as well. Please note this recycling effort is taking place at the 955 Mass Ave. UPS Store. We have no control over other UPS Store policies.

                                          TOYS FOR TOTS LITERACY PROGRAM

MISSION: The mission of the Toys for Tots Literacy Program is to offer our nation's most economically disadvantaged children the ability to compete academically and to succeed in life by providing them direct access to resources that will enhance their ability to read and to communicate effectively.

BACKGROUND: For more than 60 years, Toys for Tots has been bringing smiles to the faces of needy children through the gift of a new toy.  While Toys for Tots is committed to this tradition and will continue its toy program, it will be extending its reach through the Toys for Tots Literacy Program.  

Since 2005, The UPS Store and Mail Boxes Etc. network has been a national sponsor of Toys for Tots and has raised more than $1.3 million, helping thousands of children across the country.

Expanding on this existing partnership, The UPS Store, Mail Boxes Etc. and Toys for Tots are coming together to support children not just during the holidays, but year-round through the gift of books and educational materials. This new initiative, called the Toys for Tots Literacy Program, will maintain the Toys for Tots mission of delivering hope and inspiration and will allow them to extend their reach and impact in a very meaningful way by providing children in need with the tools that can help them break the cycle of poverty.

HOW IT WORKS: Cash and book donations made through The Toys for Tots Literacy Program will be directed to libraries, schools and existing educational programs for children in need.  All money donated to The Toys for Tots Literacy Program will be given to economically disadvantaged children, libraries, schools and other educational programs in or near the community in which it was raised.

HOW TO SUPPORT: Donate cash or new books at participating The UPS Store and Mail Boxes Etc. locations. Or click here to donate. Customers should check with their local The UPS Store or Mail Boxes Etc. location to find out if they will be conducting a book drive.
