Welcome To George County MS Toys for Tots

Meet Dr. Shira Stallworth 2025 – 2026 Lead Coordinator, George County Toys for Tots
Hello everyone!
My name is Dr. Shira Stallworth, and I am honored to serve as your official Lead Coordinator for the George County, Mississippi Toys for Tots Program 2025-2026! I have proudly served in this leadership role for the past three years, and volunteered with the United States Marine Corps Toys for Tots program for over five years. As a seasoned coordinator and dedicated community advocate, my mission is to ensure that no child wakes up without a gift on Christmas morning.
In my role as Lead Coordinator, I oversee the planning, outreach, toy collection, and distribution efforts throughout George County. I work closely with schools, churches, local businesses, and volunteers to bring hope, joy, and holiday cheer to children in need. I also lead fundraising efforts to secure financial donations that help purchase toys for underserved families. Every toy collected and every dollar donated directly supports our mission—and I’m committed to making every child feel valued and loved during the holiday season.
