The U.S. Marine Corps Reserves and the Cincinnati Bengals are pleased to announce the results for our 2006 Toys for Tots collection held at the Bengals/Raiders game on Sunday. Bengals fans generously contributed 4,278 new toys.

In addition, Bengals fans gave $50,357 in cash donations, which was $20,726 more than 2005.

“With more than 25,000 children in the 12-county Tristate area being supported during the Holiday Season by Toys for Tots, the Bengals toy collection is by far our largest. We are very grateful for all the contributions,” said Sgt. Jason M. Ernst of the U.S. Marine Corps.
