Ride-Away Employees Lend A Hand For The 'Toys For Tots' Toy Drive

 December 24, 2009
     Yesterday, employees of Ride-Away in Londonderry, NH, came together to help sort out thousands of toys for children throughout New Hampshire, at the Army Reserve Center in Londonderry.  Ride-Away visited the Toys For Tots distribution center the previous day, to donate toys and clothes, and quickly realized that the center needed help sorting and bagging the toys or they would not be ready to be delivered before Christmas.  This sparked the notion for Ride-Away to have as many employees as they could, go down and help out with whatever was needed.  Some bagged toys, others sorted them, and a couple of employees even helped call local organizations on behalf of Toys For Tots.  "This is a true testament to the kinds of employees we have at Ride-Away," says Ride-Away Vice President, Jaime Kuczewski.
