Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) November 13, 2009 -- Windsor Capital Group, headquartered in Santa Monica, CA, announced today their 26 hotels across the United States will participate in being official collection sites for this holiday season’s Toys for Tots drive. Toys for Tots is a wonderful organization which collects and distributes toys to children in need. Each hotel will be a designated Toys for Tots drop off site for the local chapter of Toys for Tots in all of the cities/areas their hotels reside.

Windsor Capital Group challenged their employees to decide on a charity that all hotels could participate as a means to help contribute to each local community during this economically challenged environment. Toys for Tots was one of the many ideas discussed and was quickly selected as the Windsor Capital Group holiday charity.

To encourage Toys for Tots donations, for every toy that is brought in as a donation, the Windsor Capital Group hotels will show their appreciation for the generous contribution by offering a coupon for $10 off the first night of a future stay at any one of their hotels. The coupons will be valid for use between December 17, 2009 and March 31, 2010 and must be presented at check-in.

"We are thrilled that Windsor Capital Group is on board to support our 2009 Toys for Tots Campaign," said retired Marine Major Bill Grein, Vice President of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. "With the help of their 26 hotels throughout the U.S. participating, we will certainly hope to raise a great deal of toys and awareness for our program, which will enable us to fulfill the Christmas holiday dreams of many less fortunate children."

Bill Upshaw, President & COO of Windsor Capital Group states, “this is one small way we can contribute and give back.” He also states, “we are encouraging our employees to contribute and in return our General Manager’s at each location will offer some token of appreciation to employees that are able to donate a toy.”

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 the community in which the campaign is conducted.

The objectives of the Toys for Tots organization is to help needy children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of one of our nation's most valuable natural resources - our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; and to contribute better to communities in the future.
