California Credit Union Partners with Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club for Holiday Toy Drive

As the holiday season approaches, California Credit Union is once again teaming up with the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club to bring joy to local families in need. Now in its sixth year, this annual Holiday Toy Drive aims to collect new, unwrapped gifts for children and teenagers, ensuring that the spirit of giving is alive and thriving within the community.

Donation Period and Locations

From now until December 4, members of the community are encouraged to drop off donations at any California Credit Union branch located in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Gifts are welcomed for children of all ages, from toddlers to teens up to the age of 17. With a range of potential gifts including toys, books, and sports equipment, the initiative aims to cater to the diverse interests of youth in the area.

A Collaborative Effort for a Good Cause

California Credit Union’s President and CEO, Steve O'Connell, emphasized the importance of community involvement during this festive time. He noted, "The holidays offer a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together and make a difference in the lives of local children." By partnering with the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club, the credit union hopes to not only bring joy to children but also reinforce the message of community support and generosity.

The Impact of the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club

The organization is dedicated to inspiring and enabling young people to achieve their full potential. Their programs focus on various aspects such as gang prevention, wellness, and the arts, fostering an environment where children can grow and develop their skills effectively.

Through the collaboration with California Credit Union, the toys and gifts collected will be distributed during the club's annual holiday celebration, ensuring that children receive their gifts in a festive atmosphere that promotes joy and community spirit.
