The RTÉ Toy Show Appeal has transformed lives nationwide. Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of viewers, over €26 million has been raised, enabling grants to hundreds of local and national charities in every county across the island of Ireland.

These organisations work tirelessly to improve the well-being of children, offering vital services in health, education, inclusion, and emotional support. From funding sensory rooms and therapy services to providing warm meals, safe spaces, and creative opportunities, the Appeal ensures that every child—regardless of circumstance—has the chance to thrive.

The RTÉ Toy Show Appeal is a testimony to the incredible generosity of the people of Ireland. It celebrates the joy of giving, compassionate communities, and the potential of children. As the Toy Show continues to delight audiences year after year, the Appeal stands as its heart: a legacy of love, laughter, and lasting impact.
