ABC Young Professionals Group is holding its annual toy drive for the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Program. Last year ABC was able to donate around 200 toys, and we are hoping to top that this year. The U.S. Marine Toys for Tots Foundation is a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit public charity that began in 1947. A main goal of ABC’s YPG is to get involved in community enhancement programs.
The program collects new, unwrapped toys during October, November, and December each year, and distributes the toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in the community. The primary goal is to send a message of hope to youngsters that will motivate them to grow up into responsible, productive, patriotic citizens and community leaders.
ABC would like to thank Stan and Sharon Uhlig of Federal Construction Consultants for the first donation! All donations (cash donations are also accepted) can be brought by the ABC office in Bellevue from now until ABC’s Open House on December 9th from 5:00 – 7:00 pm. Two Marines will be attending the Open House to show support to our members for their donations. Come thank the men who serve our country! If you have any questions, please contact Amy Gegoux at (800) 640-7789.
