In order to spread holiday spirit throughout the Plainview-Old Bethpage community, the Plainview Water District (PWD) is once again proud to partner with the Toys for Tots Foundation, sponsored by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve. The PWD headquarters, located at 10 Manetto Hill Road, will serve as an official drop-off location for the foundation. The District encourages residents to donate new and unwrapped gifts to help less fortunate children.
“We are honored to once again be playing a role in supporting the good work of these organizations who work tirelessly to lift spirits throughout the community,” said PWD Chairman Marc Laykind. “The holiday season is always a time for reflection, to give thanks for what we have and to give back to those who are less fortunate. We encourage all those able to support this program in Plainview-Old Bethpage to help us bring some joy to children in need this year.”
New and unwrapped gift donations can be dropped off at the PWD headquarters now until Monday, December 19th. Since the District started this partnership several years ago, hundreds of toys have been donated from the community to support this cause.
“Each year, we continue to look to partner with local organizations like Toys for Tots, to do our part and give back,” said PWD Commissioner Andrew Bader. “As a community, it is our responsibility to support those who might be down on their luck. If you have the ability to support these causes, it would be a meaningful and positive impact to make this holiday season.”
The U.S. Marine Corps Reserve ‘Toys for Tots’ Foundation is a nonprofit organization that aims to provide all children across the United States with happiness and joy throughout the holiday season. Through the gift of a new toy, disadvantaged children will not be overlooked during the holidays, and will know that a community of people cares for them.
“We want to ensure that we are supporting the local community in any way we can,” said PWD Commissioner Amanda Field. “We continue to have such a positive experience during our Toys for Tots donation drives in the past, and are so excited to see what this year will bring. We thank all of those who continue to support these wonderful causes each year!”
The Plainview Water District thanks the community in advance for their generous contribution.
