The Tennessee Chapter of Gamma Sigma Delta, the honor society of agriculture, is proud to support the 2025 Ryan McDonald and Colt Jones Memorial Toy Drive in association with the McNabb Center. We have set up a Donation Portal where the funds will be used to purchase new toys for this cause. We also will have large “UT Orange” bins to drop off new/unopened toys for any age. These will be  located in the lobbies of ANR, BAS, CVM, Morgan Hall, and at the East Tennessee AgResearch and Education Center (all bins will be in main lobby areas).

The toy drive and drop-off bins will be available from November 10 to December 2, 2025. 

This event is held to honor Ryan and Colt, two teenagers who were the victims of teasing and bullying in school. Ryan’s life was taken by school violence...
