MPG Car Rental Hosts Holiday Toy Drive For Local Charity Event

VENICE, Calif., Dec. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MPG Car Rental has volunteered with the Foundation For Second Chances to host a Toy Drive and offer an onsite drop off location for people to bring unwrapped toys for under-privileged youth from now until December 15^th.

The Foundation For Second Chances (FFSC) is a community-based organization that provides at-risk youth a quality education and a safe environment in the South Los Angeles area. FFSC holds an annual Gift of Giving event during the holidays, inviting volunteers to host local toy drives and underprivileged children and families from all throughout the Los Angeles community to join in on a day of free gifts, feasts, and fun.  

People can donate unwrapped toys and gifts in the box drop-off located in the MPG Car Rental office, at 2423 Lincoln Blvd. in Venice, CA.

"MPG is excited to be getting into the holiday spirit with FFSC," said Steve Vahidi, President of MPG Car Rental. "We believe it is important to get involved in the community and help out local charities whenever possible. There is always good that can be done in Los Angeles, and volunteering with the Toy Drive is a stepping stone into giving back to the community this season."

MPG Car Rental continues to promote alternative transportation, support green efforts, and give back to the local community. Steve looks forward to volunteering with FFSC again in the future.
