During the month of December, 2019, more than 1,100 toys were delivered to 20 organizations throughout Los Angeles and Ventura Counties. We delivered toys to churches, social service nonprofits (some with regional centers and offices throughout the county), day care centers, preschools and an elementary school in south Los Angeles. Our toys have become much anticipated items at many of the family shelters we serve, and the clients at those facilities are so very grateful to us for sharing the fruits of our labors.
San Fernando Valley Woodworkers spend much of the year devoted to bringing joy to children during the holiday season. From doll cradles, with handmade dolls made by the ladies of Dollies Making a Difference, and quilts, made by the San Fernando Valley Quilters Guild, flat top boxes, white erase boards, checker/chess boards, treasure chests, hand-tied, homemade, bags with four small trucks, block trucks, rubber band race cars, yoyos and mirrors, children were thrilled to receive our beautiful handmade toys.
