Employees of H & K Insurance collected a record number of items for the Toys for Tots drive.
The H & K Insurance Agency set a goal and accomplished it – they broke their own record for the amount of items they could collect for the Toys for Tots Drive.
For the past several years the Watertown Square insurance agency has hold the drive that benefits the U.S. Marine Corps effort to collect toys to distribute to less fortunate children during the holidays.
This year they tried to spread the word so they could up the ante and bring in more toys.
“So far each year has been a little more successful than the last. But this year, thanks to the kindness of everyone involved, we have pretty much doubled our haul for the kids,” said Paul Perry, CISR, AAI Treasurer/General Manager of H & K Insurance.
Even after the drive had officially ended, people were still coming in to drop off toys. Michael Pallone of Wollaston Development was generous enough to ask each guest of his Thanksgiving party to bring in a toy to donate. He ended up coming by to drop off four bags full of toys, Perry said.
On behalf of the company, Perry would like to thank everyone who helped them support the U.S. Marine Corps’ toy drive. He said he hopes that everyone will continue this season of giving throughout the year and remember to assist those in the community that are in need.
