Since its beginnings as a few employees enjoying festive drinks and donating a few toys, the Donnelly Fund Toy Drive has raised over $350,000 in monetary donations, given over 12,000 toys to children and hosted more than 5,000 Donnelly Group staff for an annual holiday party.
Donnelly Group also invites the Vancouver community to participate by bringing unwrapped toy donations to Royal Dinette, The Blackbird Public House and Barber & Co. (905 Dunsmuir Street) on December 5th any time between 5pm – 8pm.
While many lament that the Holiday Season has become more about consuming, it’s nice to know people are still willing to participate in giving, too. The Toy Drive Event brings the year to an end for Donnelly Group staff, ending in a celebratory holiday party where employees will donate their gifts and enjoy a festive evening sharing the company of each other around a massive pile of toys.
