Jason Robertson Launches Fourth Annual Robo’s Holiday Toy Drive for Children

Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson and the team announced on Dec. 1 that Robo’s Holiday Toy Drive will return for a fourth year, mobilizing fans and hospital partners to collect new toys for children treated at Children’s Medical Center Dallas. The campaign will collect donations from Dec. 5 through Dec. 13 at PNC Plaza before Stars home games and at area Children’s Health StarCenters, and the team will coordinate distribution to local hospitals.

Organizers ask that donated items be new and unwrapped, not gift wrapped, to streamline sorting and ensure hospital staff can allocate gifts safely to patients. Collection dates are aligned with Stars home game schedules to take advantage of increased foot traffic at PNC Plaza and to make it convenient for fans attending games to participate. Local hospital partners in Frisco and the broader Collin County area will receive the donations for distribution in the hospital setting.

For Collin County residents the drive offers a practical, community driven way to support children who are receiving care during the holidays. In kind donations like toys reduce out of pocket spending for families and for hospital charitable budgets, while boosting patient morale at a time when pediatric wards typically see higher needs for comfort items. The team based collection model channels fan engagement into measurable community benefit by converting game day attendance into supply flows for nearby medical facilities.

The return of Robo’s Holiday Toy Drive for a fourth consecutive year underscores continued collaboration between major sports franchises and local health institutions, and it highlights the importance of civic participation in meeting seasonal demand for charitable support. Residents planning to donate should bring new unwrapped toys to PNC Plaza on game days or to participating Children’s Health StarCenters between Dec. 5 and Dec. 13 to ensure timely distribution to Children’s Medical Center Dallas.
