Pelco Takes Pride in Toys for Tots
Pelco Inc. employees in Clovis, Calif., presented the U.S. Marine Corps with 141,934 toys that were distributed to needy children for the holidays as part of the Toys for Tots program — the largest donation drive of any company in the nation.
Pelco employees solicited 31,114 more toys that they did a year ago and nearly broke their record of 149,408 items donated in 2000. The toy donation program began among the employees in 1993 with just 808 toys and has grown into a major event not only in the company, but also in the Clovis community complete with a toy parade.
