Making Spirits Bright with Holiday Toy Drive

Thursday, December 16th, 2021

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.

Giving the Gift of Christmas

Thursday, December 6th, 2018

The spirit of Christmas was in the air at Egan’s Annual Employee Christmas Party and Toy Drive on December 5. With each holiday season, we set a new Toys for Tots donation goal within our company. And, this year was no different as employees set out to donate over 1,000 toys.

At the event, two representatives from the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation were in attendance and accepted the toy donations. Additionally, Egan employees had the opportunity to be featured on KARE 11 on December 6 to announce the grand total of 1,100 toys plus a $1,100 donation that will go to children in our local community.

The Marine Toys for Tots Foundation’s goal is to deliver, through a new toy at Christmas, a message of hope to less fortunate youngsters that will assist them in becoming responsible, productive, patriotic citizens. Thanks to Toys for Tots for providing for those in need.
