TAYLORS, SC – FATZ® has partnered with Toys for Tots and the Jasper Marine Corps to host a toy drive on Dec. 3, 2011, from 11 a.m. – 11 p.m. The event offers an opportunity for the community to get involved and donate toys for Christmas to needy children in the area. By playing an active role in the development of one of our nationʼs most valuable resources – our children – the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Programʼs primary goal is to deliver a message of hope that will assist the children in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens.
To continue the gift of giving, FATZ® will reward each child that donates a toy for the fundraiser a Gold Star certificate for a free kids meal. FATZ®’s long-standing Gold Star Program provides deserving children rewards for scholastic achievement.
FATZ® is committed to making a difference and helping each of its local communities grow and thrive. Since 2009, FATZ® has raised more than $1,000,000 to support its communities through various fundraising efforts and for countless organizations, from local schools to United Way.
