Empowering Every Child’s Tomorrow—With Compassion, Support, and Opportunity
At FOR THE KIDS Benefit Foundation, Inc., our mission is to provide assistance to children of all ages in our community and surrounding areas either directly or indirectly through their parental guardian.
FOR THE KIDS Benefit Foundation, Inc. began with a simple Toy Run 32 years ago, founded by DB Bishop, Ed Stone, Tattoo Bob, and Trapper, with Bruce Guffee bringing the event to life by riding as Santa for 26 years. His son, George, now a director of the organization, proudly continues that tradition and leads the Toy Run as Santa every year.
As the Toy Run grew, its purpose deepened when Chey became involved. While caring for his son Blake, who had a terminal illness, Chey experienced some of the obstacles that families face. His friendship with George—and their shared desire to help families in crisis—sparked a vision to expand the Toy Run into something greater.
In 2021, inspired by Blake’s journey and the challenges faced by families across Texoma, FOR THE KIDS Benefit Foundation, Inc. was officially established. What began as a single ride is now a year‑round mission rooted in compassion, community, and the belief that no family should face their hardest moments alone.
The Toy Run remains at the heart of the organization as it continues to provide care, support, and hope for families throughout the region.
FOR THE KIDS Benefit Foundation, Inc. has been committed to lifting up children and families in our community with compassion, creativity, and care.
We offer a wide range of programs. From emergency financial assistance to healthcare services, all designed to help individuals overcome challenges and build a brighter future.
