Previous Toy Drive Initiatives
Alt Erotic founder and director Ivan has a history of organizing toy donation events. These events have been a part of his life for over a dozen years. In 2025, Ivan collaborated with French Canadian adult director and writer Ricky Greenwood for an Xmas Toy Drive. This event, initially started by Ivan more than 16 years prior, took place on Wednesday, December 3, from 7 to 11 p.m. at The Last Call in Tarzana, California.
Attendees for the 2025 event could donate $20 at the door or gain free entry by bringing a new, unwrapped children’s toy of equal or greater value. The event featured a red carpet, drink specials, and karaoke starting at 10 p.m. The Last Call is located at 6025 Reseda Boulevard, in Tarzana. The event was for individuals 21-and-over, requiring ID at the door. For those unable to attend but wishing to donate money or toys before the event, contact was directed to Erika Icon of The Rub PR.
Ivan expressed excitement about Greenwood's involvement in the 2025 event, stating his respect for Greenwood as a creator and as a person. Greenwood also commented on his desire to give back and ensure children have an "amazing Christmas," anticipating strong attendance and donations from industry members.
An Alt Erotic Toy Drive Charity Event also occurred in 2023, as documented in a gallery posted on December 1 of that year.
Broader Community Toy Drives
Beyond the adult industry, other organizations have also conducted holiday toy drives. For example, Palo Alto adapted its annual Holiday Toy Drive in 2020 to be "contactless" due to the coronavirus. This drive took place from December 12 to 16, with all donations intended for local youth in need.
City officials requested unwrapped toys, books, or gift cards to be donated at a drop-off location at Mitchell Park Community Center, located at 3700 Middlefield Rd. The drop-off location was open on December 12 and 13 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and on December 15 and 16 from 3 to 7 p.m. Questions regarding this event were directed to Chris Penaranda.
