In a “happy face” truck, Hiller Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical (Hiller) delivered over $10,500 to Toys for Tots, which is a U.S. Marine Corps. non-profit that gifts children at Christmas.
This is the third year Hiller has partnered with Toys for Tots. The funds were generated through a special Hiller promotion on tankless water heaters. From each unit sold, $50 went to purchase toys to be donated to Toys for Tots. And to help promote sales, Hiller offered homeowners a $250 Visa gift card with their purchase through the end of the year.
The donation was made possible by the local support of a community-based business. The founder and CEO Jimmy Hiller, his wife Michelle, their children, and grandchildren shopped for toys on the wish list of children provided by the Toys for Tots organization.
“Shopping for toys to donate to Toys for Tots is something my family and I look forward to every year”, remarked Hiller.
Thanks to local support, this year’s donation was doubled over previous years of $5,500 in 2020, $5,000 in 2019.
This year’s donation of over $10,500 filled over 14 shopping carts with new toys and electronics on the wish list provided by Toys for Tots.
“We are so blessed to be able to give back to the community that has supported us so well for the past 30 years. For many families the holidays can be a financially stressful time. It is incredibly rewarding to be able to alleviate some of that stress and to make sure that every child experiences the magic and joy of the Christmas season”.
