Fearless, full of sass, unstoppable energy-he climbs, dances, & laughs through life. Wild at heart, always shining, a tiny tornado of love.
We would like to thank you for supporting Gunner in this year's competition. Your participation helps us support Toys for Tots in their mission to bring joy and hope to children during the holiday season.
We're celebrating the power of play, creativity, and imagination through beloved brands families know and love.
This boy is a whirlwind of energy—spunky, fearless, and wildly curious. He charges into life with wide eyes, a big laugh, and endless questions. Every moment is an adventure, every object a discovery. He’s bold, imaginative, and full of heart—unafraid to try, quick to bounce back, and always all in. Independent, joyful, and a little bit wild, he’s the kind of kid who leaves a trail of wonder wherever he goes.
What are Gunner's favorite activities?He loves dirt, rocks, puddles, and anything with wheels. If it has a motor and goes fast, he’s all in. Monster trucks are his favorite, especially the louder and bigger ones. He’ll race anything—cars, bikes, even the wind—and always believes he can win. Whether he’s stomping through mud, chasing bugs, or pretending to drive a racecar, he’s happiest under the open sky with his imagination in overdrive and his feet barely touching the ground. Fast, fearless, and full of joy—that’s his kind of day.
How would $25,000 impact your family?With $25,000, we would first set aside money for college funds for both of our boys to help build their future. We’d also plan a special family vacation to make lasting memories together. And because adventure is such a big part of who Gunner is, we would buy him a dirt bike so he can enjoy the outdoors doing what he loves most. This gift would help us invest in our boys’ education, create unforgettable experiences as a family, and support their passions as they grow.
