California Credit Union Celebrates the Season of Giving
The season of goodwill is upon us, and California Credit Union is stepping up to spread holiday cheer through its annual Holiday Toy Drive. By partnering with the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club, they are working to ensure that children in our community experience the joy of receiving gifts during this special time of year.
Donate New, Unwrapped Toys
From now until December 6, California Credit Union invites everyone to contribute to this heartwarming cause by donating new, unwrapped toys. Drop-offs can be made at any of their branches located throughout Los Angeles and Orange County. Gifts are welcomed for children of all ages, from toddlers through teens (up to age 17). Every toy collected will be distributed to Club kids and families during a festive celebration planned for mid-December.
Making a Difference Together
Steve O’Connell, President/CEO of California Credit Union, expressed the organization's commitment: "The holidays are a time of joy for every child. Something as simple as one donated toy can make a world of difference. We invite our members and neighbors to join us in bringing smiles and a little holiday magic to children in our communities." This sentiment echoes the spirit of the season, urging community involvement to uplift those in need.
