DWC Partners with Electrical Distributors to deliver hundreds of holiday toys for Kids.

Since Distributor Wire & Cable (DWC) was founded back in 2008, the company has taken it’s Give Back, A Lot value seriously. Throughout the year, DWC is active in charities in and around our network of distribution centers throughout the U.S. Among the causes that have been important during DWC’s 15-year journey, Toys for Tots has been a part of DWC’s giving legacy the longest.

The mission of the U. S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program is to collect new, unwrapped toys during October, November, and December each year, and distribute those toys as Christmas gifts to needy children in each community in which the campaigns are conducted.

Every Holiday season, people of the electrical distribution industry join in supporting DWC’s annual toy drive. DWC collects toys and funds to purchase toys in support of the Toys for Tots Foundation, who have been distributing toys to less-fortunate children since 1947. Customers get the opportunity to participate by donating toys through DWC’s customer platform, the fastQuote portal. For every initial fastQuote a customer submits, DWC donates a toy on their behalf. This year, almost 300 toys were donated through DWC’s fastQuote customer portal! In addition, donations from the company and through payroll deductions from DWC employees tallied just under 1,000 shiny new toys during this 2023 giving campaign.

Thanks again to DWC’s valued customers and employees for making this 15th annual Toys for Tots giving campaign, a huge success! We’re grateful to know that together, we’ve made the holiday season a little brighter for children in need.

Happy Holidays!
