Donations were collected for Toys for Tots during Livermore Valley Wine Community’s Annual Holidays in the Vineyards Event
Livermore, CA, December 18, 2024– Livermore Valley Wine Community and Pacific States Petroleum have partnered once again for a Toys for Tots drive during the annual Holidays in the Vineyards event. During the two-day event on December 7 and 8, 2024, 850 toys and $1,040 in cash donations were collected at the Livermore Valley wineries for Toys for Tots. Pacific State Petroleum matched the toy and cash donations made by patrons and the wineries, resulting in a total of over 1,700 toys and $2,080 to purchase additional toys. All the toys will go to a local collection done by the U.S. Marines and will be passed out to the children in the community. This is the 38th year in row that the Livermore Valley Wine Community has supported Toys for Tots.
“We are proud to partner with Pacific States Petroleum again to support Toys for Tots and help bring holiday joy to children across the Bay Area,” said Brandi Lombardi, Executive Director for the Livermore Valley Wine Community. “Holidays in the Vineyards is a tradition that is dear to locals and travelers from across the region. We are grateful to all of those who donated toys and cash gifts. With these donations, more children will have a smile on their face this holiday season.”
“Our purpose with Toys for Tots is to make a direct impact within our community by providing a toy to local children that would otherwise not have a present, “said Jason Edwards, General Manager, Propane, for Pacific States Petroleum, Inc. “We are thrilled to have partnered with the Livermore Valley Wine Community once again on this annual toy drive to ensure that children across the Bay Area have a memorable and joy filled holiday.”
The partnership between Livermore Valley Wine Community and Pacific States Petroleum, Inc. goes beyond the holiday season and is an important relationship that builds partnership and camaraderie with business owners, wine growers, families and friends of the community in which they work and live.
