DJ Kopec reached his goal to collect 20,000 toys for children.

Kopec performed a live set Saturday night at the B&O Railroad Museum in partnership with the Greater Chesapeake Charitable Foundation and the United Way of Central Maryland to collect 20,000 toys.

The event was about the music and stuffing a train with toys, but people already donated more than 11,000 toys over the past several weeks.
