The holiday spirit is in full swing. While it’s easy to get caught up in the many traditions, time spent with loved ones, and holiday cheer, we’re taking this time to slow down and remember the community around us.
During the first week of December, both our Twin Cities and Rochester locations were able to host their annual toy drives. Our Twin Cities employees donated 84 toys and $3,745 in monetary donations, with an Egan Company match resulting in 168 toys and $7,490 being donated to the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation for distribution locally in the Twin Cities metro area. Our Rochester employees were able to donate 20 toys and $580 for Ronald McDonald House Charities, to ensure that children staying in the Ronald McDonald House in Rochester receive gifts. The Ronald McDonald House Charities provides a home to families as they or a loved one seek medical care.

Employees are helping give the gift of Christmas to children less fortunate through this year’s Egan Company Toy Drive. With a goal of 1,200 toys in mind, employees dropped off their donations at Egan’s Christmas Party on December 6.
Two representatives from the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation attended our event and accepted donations. On December 16, Egan representatives had the opportunity to share our impact on KARE 11, announcing that we had donated a grand total of 1,200 toys, ensuring many children in our community will receive presents this Christmas.
