Toshiba America, Inc. Employees Spread Holiday Cheer for SPIN Families
For eight years running, Toshiba America, Inc. and its generous employees have come together to raise funds for local and national charities during the holiday season through the Toshiba Global Volunteer Days initiative, and this year the team raised over $12,000, including nearly $6,000 in support of Serving People in Need of Orange County.
The fundraising drive took place from November 21 to December 15 and allowed employees to donate up to 40 hours of paid time off or make one-time donations through paycheck deductions. On December 5, Unite Nation International Volunteer Day, some Toshiba employees also participated in community volunteering efforts.
"During this holiday season, when so many Americans need assistance, I am incredibly proud of our employees for their generosity and dedication to helping our communities. I am also pleased to announce that the company will be contributing an additional $4,000 to employee-led fundraising and volunteer programs. Thank you to all our employees for your efforts to make a positive impact!" said Ryuji Maruyama, Toshiba America, Inc. Chairman & CEO.
SPIN is grateful for the Toshiba America, Inc. team’s generous support of SPIN and the families we serve. These funds allow SPIN to continue its important work in providing safe and stable housing for families in need in Orange County.
