Since 2008, Northwest Exterminating has supported Toys for Tots. Each year, all of our service centers come together to donate toys to help bring holiday cheer to children across the Atlanta area. We always enjoy the opportunity to fill up boxes with toys to donate, and our corporate office enjoyed being able to serve as a drop site for another year. This allowed Northwest teammates and those in our community to have another convenient option to bring by donated toys.
This year, Sgt. Rivera came by our office to help us with our toy collection. All these toys came from two events and needed to get to the Marines at the base. They have over 90 events on schedule to attend throughout the year, and at each of them, they help collect toys or raise money for Toys for Tots. We enjoy the extraordinary relationship that we have built with them over the years and love to see the difference that we have been able to make together.
The Atlanta Toys for Tots goal is “to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.” This is part of why our Northwest team enjoys partnering with them every year because our goal is to provide simple, meaningful opportunities for our teammates to create a positive impact in the communities we serve.
We know that the holiday season can be tough on many people. Having the opportunity to give back and support an organization that does so much for those around us is something our team is truly grateful for. We look forward to hearing how many children were able to be impacted this year and to continuing our partnership with Toys for Tots in the upcoming years.
