The mixer looks to gather professionals from Glen Allen and other parts of the Richmond area for networking and connections. Guests must bring a new, unwrapped children’s toy as a donation, with all toys going towards local children in need. In exchange for the donation, attendees will receive a raffle ticket for a prize draw. There will also be door prizes drawn throughout the night.
Toys and Tots will feature a live DJ with food and beverages available throughout the event. Guests can meet with other local professionals and business leaders, as well as the Big Man in Red to see if they are on the Naughty or Nice List. Guests at business charity events like this one often use business card printing to help make long-lasting connections.
Organizers have teased more surprises and prizes for the event. Advertising for the event emphasizes its friendly nature, explaining:
“This isn’t a formal conference or sales event. It’s an opportunity to meet new people, reconnect with familiar faces, enjoy the holidays, and support a great cause at the same time.”
The 2026 Toys for Tots Mixer will take place at The Dominion Club in Glen Allen on the afternoon of Wednesday, December 2.
