Breezeline Spreads Joy to Children in Need Through National Corporate Sponsorship of Toys for Tots® Program

Breezeline launches annual campaign with $100,000 in support

QUINCY, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Breezeline, the nation’s eighth-largest cable operator, is working to make the holiday season brighter for children in need through its participation in the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve’s Toys for Tots program.

Each year, the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve collects and distributes new, unwrapped toys as gifts for children who are less fortunate in the many communities the program helps serve. Toys are currently being accepted.

Breezeline has designated several toy drop-off locations at its facilities, including:

Breezeline will team up with iHeart Radio to host one-day community collection drives in Columbus, OH (Dec. 13), Cleveland, OH (Dec. 14), and Morgantown, WV (Dec. 15).

In addition, as a national Toys for Tots sponsor, Breezeline is providing support to Toys for Tots valued at $100,000.

“Breezeline proudly supports the mission of Toys for Tots,” said Julie Sullivan, Vice President of Marketing for Breezeline, “which is to make sure children experience the spirit of the holiday season.”

“Breezeline’s community service goals certainly align with those the Marine Corps has promoted for over 75 years through our Toys for Tots Program,” said retired Marine Colonel Ted Silvester, Vice President of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. “With Breezeline’s support we will be able to fulfill even more holiday dreams of less fortunate children who otherwise might be forgotten.”
