Chosen Payments Helps to Collect Toys for Less Fortunate Families in Its Community

The staff of Chosen Payments, based in Moorpark, California, is giving back to the community this holiday season by volunteering their time to help the less fortunate families of the Ventura County. From December 6-20, Chosen Payments will be helping to collect toys through a partnership with Ventura County Children’s Services Auxiliary through the Spark of Love. Each year, the Ventura County branch of Spark of Love provides gifts to families who are part of the Children’s Services network. The organization hosts a holiday storefront where parents and foster parents of these children can shop for all the toys their children dream of.

Want to get involved? Chosen Payments has arranged various drop points for unwrapped gifts at 15 local merchants, and customers of these merchants can receive a discount for their donation. Chosen will market and spread the word to increase traffic for these local merchants and push to get the most amount of gifts collected as possible, and staff will assist the Ventura County Children’s Services Auxiliary through Spark of Love in passing out these gifts on December 23. The holiday toy store will be located at Telemark Business Center, 4601 Telephone Road, Suite 107, Ventura, Calif.

“This is my third year doing this and each year our participation gets greater. The gratification we receive from helping the community and donating our time and money is above all we can work for,” says Jeff Brodsly, Chosen Payments CEO and organizer of the Community Give Back by Chosen Payments. “Imagining these kids during the holiday without any presents to unwrap is just disheartening, so putting yourself in their shoes just for a second makes us appreciate all we have been blessed with. I thank all my staff and the participating merchants for their involvement in this great cause.”

2013 participating merchants are; Lemmo’s Grill, Me’n’Eds Pizza (Moorpark), Lalos Mexican Food, Vision Wireless (Simi Valley), Zin Bistro, Fins Seafood, Simi Sams, Palermo Pizza, Euodia Salon & Day Spa, El Pollo Corona (Moorpark), and Hearts of Jade.
