Gruen Reflects on Communities in Need

Each year, Gruen Associates calls on staff to support a local toy drive during the holidays. The Spark of Love Toy Drive collects toys, and sometimes electronics, for families with infants, children, and teens. Our staff’s donations were taken to Station T61 of the Los Angeles Fire Department for distribution at their annual event for families in need. We thank Amanda Rogers, who delivered items to Firefighters Noah Fox and Matt Quinley at Station T61 on our behalf.

As we reflect on our minor contribution geared towards the gift-giving holidays, now, more than ever, there is always a need and time to donate! It’s never too early or late to bring support, joy, and comfort for those facing tough, uncertain times.
