California Credit Union Delivers Holiday Toys & Gifts To Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club
California Credit Union has partnered with the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club to bring some holiday magic to hundreds of Club kids, providing over 120 new toys and gifts donated by the credit union, its employees, and members.
The toys were distributed during the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club holiday celebration on December 20th, with more than 1,500 holiday gifts given to the Club families it serves in communities across Northeast Los Angeles. Credit union volunteers also were on hand to help organize and distribute gifts for the kids.
"We are honored to support the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club in making the holidays a special, joy-filled time for so many families across our communities," said California Credit Union President/CEO Steve O'Connell. "We were overwhelmed with the generosity of our members, community, and credit union team in donating to our toy drive – and the caring and excitement they shared with us to spread the spirit of giving during this holiday season."
The Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club's mission is to inspire and enable all youth, especially from disadvantaged circumstances, to realize their full potential as productive, care and responsible members of the community. Classes for teens include gang prevention, Relationship Smarts, social interaction, wellness, the arts, and physical fitness.
