Help The Asylum Help Kids in Need!!!

As the holidays are somehow already upon us, it's time again to remember that in this season of receiving, it is far, far more satisfying to give. And one of the most venerable and long-standing of holiday charities, Toys For Tots, is getting its annual hand-up from the fine, fine folks at The Asylum, who are asking for our help. 
 
 
 
Below, please find the call-to-arms from Asylum executive producer David Michael Latt; read it, act on it, then spread it around to as many of your friends, family, co-workers, roommates, significant others, amiable strangers or pretty much anyone you know who has email or a social networking site, and ask them to do the same. It isn't so much the physical gift that can make the biggest difference, often times it's just knowing someone cares. So help out the studio that has given you so many outstanding hours of awesome entertainment over the years by pledging a toy or seventeen to the drive. Info is below, and again, please pass it on!
 
 
"This is Latt from The Asylum, and yes, it's that time again: TOYS FOR TOTS!!!

This is my favorite of all charities, because unlike that other cancer one we do ever year, this one actually has an immediate result: Happy, smiling, kids! Instant good Karma!

So, what do I want from you? 

1 UNWRAPPED TOY. 
That's it! 
(It's so easy to buy good karma)

Mail it, or drop it off...and if I'm at the office, let me know and I'll say hello (lucky you!).

AND…the person(s) who brings in the most toys will get their choice of an Asylum DVD. Yeah, that's right. A real Asylum DVD. You're welcome, world. 
 
Here's what you need to do:
-Find a toy.
-Don't wrap it!
-Mail it, or drop it off to:
 
Santa Elf
c/o The Asylum
72 East Palm Ave.
Burbank, CA. 91502
All toys must be delivered to the office by December 2, 2011.
Good Toys:
-Books (used are fine, but they must look new)
-Anything that doesn't require batteries
-Nothing wrapped
-
Lots of little toys are better than 1 big toy
Bad Toys:
-Missiles
-Cheese
-Occupy Wall Street Posters

Sincerely,
David Latt & the whole Latt Clan
(David, Kim, Audrey, Brady & Moise)
P.S.: Please forward this email, post it on Facebook, Twitter, etc... We want to break records for the most toys this year!!!
