How to fill a seven-ton truck
Employees of Affinion Loyalty Group (ALG) participated in a company-sponsored shopping
spree at Toys“R”Us Richmond West to make Christmas a little brighter for local
children. All toys purchased were donated to marines on-site for the Marine Toys
for Tots Foundation.
“It took
939 toys, 22 packages of assorted batteries, the help of three Marines, 76 ALG
employees and one and a half hours to fill a seven-ton truck,” Marti Beller,
president of ALG, said. “I am overwhelmed with appreciation for everyone who
helped make this event possible and proud to know that the toys purchased will
be given as holiday gifts to children in our community.”
According to GySgt. Russell Sayles, the organization has had an especially hard time this
year collecting toys, and the support from ALG was more than expected and
extremely appreciated.
Employees at ALG are regularly involved with community activities. In addition, the company has a long-standing
corporate relationship with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Greater Virginia.
Since 2005, ALG and its employees have donated more than $65,000 to the
Make-A-Wish Foundation.
