Pen Air Branches Donates To Toys For Tots
December 15, 2010
Pen Air Federal Credit Union presented a truckload of toys and $500 to the Toys for Tots Foundation. The toys were collected at Pen Air offices across the area, including Century.
“We thank you from the bottom of our hearts,” Toys for Tots Coordinator for Marine Aviation Training Support Group-24 MGySgt. Roberto Rivera said. “We couldn’t do it without your support.”
“Pen Air FCU has supported Toys for Tots for several years now,” Pen Air FCU President and Chief Executive Officer Ron Fields said. “I am extremely proud of the continued outpouring of generosity from all of our employees and member-owners to help underprivileged children.”
The Marine Corps spent countless hours setting up drop box locations, conducting fundraisers, and spreading the word about the Toys for Tots Foundation and how the foundation benefits underprivileged children in the community.

thanks penn air. we have a lot of single parents that make a dollar too much. the government and other social agencies give the same people these items over and over again. what they fail to realize is that we have these single parents trying to pay their bills. look at century woods and camellia gardens, some of those people don’t pay rent. but people trying to work and do the right thing their rent is so high they just can’t pay it. same thing about anything else free. please let’s help those that are trying to help themselves. i realize some people are in need, but again thanks penn air
Does anyone know if you can still apply to receive these toys if a person is in need or is it too late?
