A story that began with a simple invitation
Make room
for more joy.
What started around one dinner table grew into a community tradition.
In 2003, Mark Carroll invited friends to dinner and asked each guest to bring a toy for a local toy drive. The gathering grew, and so did the generosity behind it.
Mark Carroll & Friends Charity was established as a 501(c)(3) in 2012. Today, the organization supports nonprofit partners responding to immediate needs and works to expand opportunities for children and underserved communities.
