Over 200 U-Store-It Self-Storage Centers (NYSE: YSI) across the country are
making a difference in their local communities by participating in the U.S.
Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program this holiday season. Bring new,
unwrapped toys to any participating U-Store-It location through December to
help local needy children in your area.

for distribution for children within the community. With a wide range of self storage solutions and locations,
U-Store-It is the perfect match for Toys for Tots.

this program we can participate in more national fundraisers in the
future."
