ENRICHMENT THROUGH TOCO
TOCO’s enrichment programs strive to enrich the lives of children through various learning and artistic programs that will allow them to immerse and express themselves in a creative environment. In 2011, TOCO launched its annual toy drive, delivering and distributing toys to children in need during the holidays. TOCO also provides school supplies, musical instruments, computers and other educational tools to help encourage and engage Caribbean youth to learn beyond the classroom.
PROGRAMS
-
TOCO ANNUAL HOLIDAY TOY DRIVE: TOCO collects new, unwrapped toys to distribute as gifts to children in the Caribbean during the holiday season.
-
TOCO BACKPACK PROGRAM: TOCO supplies school children with backpacks filled with essential school supplies at the beginning of the school year. The goal of the program is not only to give students the proper tools for success but mainly to boost children's self-esteem, confidence and pride in doing so.
-
AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS: TOCO continually strives to support schools with various afterschool programs in the area of sports, music and art. TOCO works with music companies and sports organizations to collect instruments (guitars, flutes, violins), computers, sports gear and other items to encourage students to learn, play and engage rather than be lured by the violence of the streets.
