Super Feast in urgent need of toys ahead of Christmas Eve event at George R. Brown Convention Center

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- With Christmas almost here, the organizers of the Super Feast said the need for toys for children this year is "astronomical."

An emergency toy drive happened Monday at the George R. Brown Convention Center.

It's part of the massive effort to help thousands of underserved children and their families.

In fact, Super Feast said it wants to donate 100,000 brand new toys to more than 30,000 families during the Christmas Eve event.

Thirty thousand gifts were passed out to children last year, and in 2022, applications for toys and food baskets have only increased.

Here's what's needed:

• Brand new, unwrapped toys

• Gifts for teens

• Canned goods

• Bikes

If you couldn't drop off toys at the George R. Brown Convention Center Monday, there are four other locations accepting donations.
