At SoRewarding we feel very strongly about giving back to those less fortunate… hence the website where every action leads to giving back! And what better time of year than the holiday season to share the spirit of giving with others?
There’s lights, caroling, sleigh rides, eggnog (yum), and presents (of course)… but every year we are reminded that many families are not as fortunate as we are. One way we are trying to help others out this holiday season is to throw a RewardingCrew party for The Denver Santa Claus Shop!
The Denver Santa Claus Shop is a volunteer-run, nondenominational nonprofit organization that is all about children and toys. Their mission is that every child should have a toy at Christmas! I know you remember that special Christmas morning when you got exactly what you wanted and we are trying to spread a little bit of that joy this year!
This nonprofit organization has helped more than 1.5 million local children in the last 82 years. The Denver Santa Claus Shop is Metro Denver’s largest annual toy drive for needy children during the holiday season and is believed to be the longest, continually running charity of its kind in the United States.
The Shop sets up a giant, temporary “toy store” that opens for four days in December each year. The nonprofit relies on generous people, companies, organizations, etc. to donate new and gently used toys to fill this store. The Denver Santa Claus Shop distributes gift certificates to parents, enabling them to shop and select toys for their children. Families can then visit the “toy store” to pick out a gift for the holiday season.
So, how can you get involved? Join us on December 4th at Baker St. Pub and Grill in the DTC area for the “Santa Social” as we toast to toys! Stop by after work for this happy hour event and bring a toy for a less fortunate tot in the area!
Make sure to check www.SoRewarding.com for tickets and we hope to see you there full of holiday spirit!
