HAMILTON — The Hamilton-Halton Home Builders' Association (HHHBA) held its annual Holiday Social and Toy Drive in early December, collecting over 100 toys that were donated to City Kidz. This year's toy drive was a great success, with more toys donated than last year thanks to the generous support of Association members and partners. Every year, the HHHBA answers the call to collect much-needed toys for kids in our community and every year the success of this event continues to grow.
The new toys were donated to City Kidz, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children living in the inner city. This year, City Kidz hopes to collect 4,000 new toys for children in the Hamilton community. They will distribute the gifts at their annual Christmas parties on December 6th and 13th, where they provide children with dinner, candy bags, prizes, and a personally selected gift.
"Our Association continuously strives to give back to our community," said Nando De Caria, HHHBA President. Being a father of three young children, I understand first-hand the joy that the Holiday Season brings. It warms my heart to be able to share that happiness with children who otherwise would not have experienced Christmas this year. I'm delighted by the overwhelming support of our members, bringing more toys this year than ever before."
HHHBA was happy to report that the majority of the toys donated fit into the most needed category for kids aged 10-12. The HHHBA would like to thank everyone who donated gifts for children in their community.
