Don’t keep Toybox a secret! Please share us with as many people as you can…

Toybox Expresso is a quick and easy way to share Toybox Gifts with your friends, family, work colleagues... in fact, everyone you know, and at the same time making a real difference to the street children we seek to serve in Guatemala, Bolivia and Peru.

Toybox crafts and gifts are made by communities out in Latin America. All of the groups we work with are paid a decent wage and are taught skills and new technicques to ensure that all Toybox gifts are made to the best of their ability.

All of the people who make our products rely on Toybox orders as their main source of income. Most of them are women who do not have the opportunity to get a normal job because they have to look after their children, and often because there aren't any jobs to be had. Read more about them here.

By holding a Toybox Expresso party, you can help the people of Guatemala, Bolivia and Peru improve their communities and help keep children off the streets.

There are many reasons to take part in Expresso:

* It’s quick and easy to organise
* It can brighten up everyone’s day
* It gives more people the chance to buy our gifts
* It helps wake everyone up to the issues faced by street children

Here’s how you take part: Choose the date and venue – at home, at work, at church, wherever you can meet comfortably with friends for an hour or two. Order your Expresso box, telling us the date and venue for your event and the likely number of people attending.

"Many, many thanks. We all had a wonderful evening. The work you guys are doing for these children is so precious." Fran Mitchell, Toybox Supporter
