Make the season brighter for Wildcat families
The holiday season is a time to share joy — and at Kansas State University, that means taking care of one another. Parking Services invites the K-State community to make the season brighter for student families by donating to this year's holiday toy drive.
Each new, unwrapped toy donated will go directly to support undergraduate and graduate students with families. Every contribution helps create moments of joy for children and reminds us that giving back is a powerful way to strengthen our Wildcat community.
Donations can be dropped off Nov. 10 through Dec. 10, from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday at the Parking Services office, located on the ground floor of the parking garage at 706 N. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
As a thank you, students, faculty and staff who donate will be entered to win one of three 2026–2027 annual parking permits, which include garage access. Graduating students who win will receive free parking for the remainder of the current year and a full refund for any active permits they hold. Each toy donated counts as an additional entry.
In mid-December, the collected toys will be shared at a special celebration for Wildcat families featuring holiday cheer, door prizes and fun surprises for the little ones. Details about the event will be announced soon.
Together, we can make the holidays a little brighter — because Wildcats take care of Wildcats.
