As a recent member of the Madrinas Padrinos Leadership Program Committee (MPLP), I extend a warm invitation to you, my Long Beach community to participate in the 3^rd Annual Holiday Toy Drive benefiting Padres Contra el Cancer (http://www.iamhope.org/index.php).  We are a group of committed individuals looking for ways to network and more importantly have annual philanthropic community service projects, such as the Holiday Toy Drive.

You are my guest to the toy drive event at Tamayo’s Restaurant, Thursday, December 6^th beginning at 6:00 pm.  We will have a reception full of good times with a fun and committed group of young professionals.  Please bring an unwrapped gift for a child, a $20.00 minimum value. We will distribute these Toys to Hematology/Oncology patients from Pediatric Oncology Centers throughout Southern California. 

Celebrate the holiday season and at the same time brighten a child’s holiday with a toy.   

Remember: Thursday, December 6, 2007 from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. 

Toy Drive Location:  Tamayo’s Restaurant, 5300 E. Olympic Blvd. Los Angeles, CA
