Fortune Bro’s Toy Drive to hold 4th annual event at Rack Attack Tempe

 More than 100 large trucks and off-road vehicles packed with toys will make their way into the parking lot of Rack Attack Tempe on Saturday, Dec. 13 to make the holiday special for young cancer warriors and their siblings. 

The "Fortune Bro’s Toy Drive 2025" takes place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Rack Attack Tempe, 1245 W. Elliot Road, Suite 111, in Tempe. Rack Attack sells cargo and storage racks for cars, pickup trucks and SUVs.

Now in its fourth year, the free event attracts truck and off-road enthusiasts from across the Valley and the state. All the toys will be donated to Children’s Cancer Network, or CCN, a Chandler-based nonprofit that supports children and families statewide throughout their cancer journey.

“Our off-road community has been amazing with their support. We know how challenging the holidays can be for families facing childhood cancer, and we’re hoping to collect more than 1,000 toys this year for families in need,” Blake Mooney from Rack Attack Tempe said in a statement.

Coordinated by off-road enthusiast Chris Fortunato with support from Blake Mooney and his team at Rack Attack Tempe, the event’s festival-like atmosphere features sponsor and vendor booths, food, music, prize giveaways, and fun for all ages. The event will also feature a “Kid’s Zone” with an inflatable obstacle course, basketball hoops, and other games.

Rack Attack Tempe is one of 46 premier rack specialty stores in North America. The store carries vehicle racks for bikes, skis, boards, boats, ladders and more. Blake Mooney, the store’s general manager, said this year’s toy drive is even more meaningful. 

Fortunato said everyone is welcome, whether they have a truck or not.

Patti Luttrell, Children’s Cancer Network executive director and co-founder, started the nonprofit more than 20 years ago with her husband, Stephen, after realizing the need for more family support outside of the hospital when their son, Jeff, was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia almost 30 years ago.

“The holidays are always challenging for childhood cancer families, and this year is especially tough since prices are so much higher for basic goods, like groceries,” Luttrell said in a statement.
