“There is nothing like the joy of a child receiving a special gift during the holidays, and we are honored to support the Los Angeles Boys & Girls Club in bringing that magic alive,” said California Credit Union President/CEO Steve O’Connell. “We want to thank all our members and our credit union team for so enthusiastically participating in our toy drive to spread the spirit of giving and community during this holiday season.”
All of the toys and gifts were donated by California Credit Union, its employees and members in a month-long drive in its branch locations across Los Angeles County.
