Park Maitland® School Donates Toys to Local Children in Need

Students collected brand-new toys for the 106.7 Baby DJ Toy Drive

Students at Park Maitland School’s South Campus in Winter Park recently donated more than 200 toys to the 106.7 Baby DJ Toy Fund, which provides assistance to families of economic disadvantage in the Central Florida area. Over the past few weeks, students collected brand-new toys to benefit individuals and families supported by the fund. Through this initiative, students learned the importance of giving back to the community, especially during the holiday season.

The Baby DJ program began over 30 years ago when its founder “Johnny Magic” was inspired to provide assistance to underprivileged families in the Central Florida area. From that moment of inspiration, Johnny began to dedicate his time and resources to developing a program that would make it possible for impoverished families to provide a wonderful holiday experience for their children. In the years since, Baby DJ has worked in collaboration with local churches and nonprofits organizations to fulfill this mission.
