The second annual American Equity Mortgage Toy Drive took place during December, with branches across the country collecting toys to benefit the Toys for Tots Foundation.
The program runs annually, with the goal of providing toys to children in need.
The results of the Toys for Tots Foundation toy drive were astounding. The U.S. Marines distributed 16.4 million new toys to 7.4 million less fortunate children throughout the nation in 2009. According to the organization, it was one of the "most successful campaigns in the 62 year history of Toys for Tots."
We were proud to be a part of the effort and collected almost 500 toys in total!
