Alpharetta, GA (PRWEB) December 02, 2013
Showcasing its commitment to the Alpharetta community, the Embassy Suites Atlanta – Alpharetta hotel announced today that for the fourth year it is an official collection site for this holiday season’s Toys for Tots drive to collect toys to distribute to children in need. Last year the hotel collected more than 100 toys for the local chapter.
The Embassy Suites Atlanta - Alpharetta is participating along with 20 other hotels owned or operated by Windsor Capital Group (WCG) and its hotel management company Windsor Management Services.
"The number of children living below the poverty level is now over 16 million; a figure I've never known to be higher," said retired Marine Major Bill Grein, the vice president of the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. "In order for us to fulfill the Christmas holiday dreams of as many of these children as possible, we're going to need a lot of individual and corporate support," Grein continued. "Fortunately, we have WCG Hotels back for the fifth year to help us reach these kids."
“Five years ago, our leadership team challenged each of the 21 hotels to submit a charity that we could all support and work with in our local communities,” explained Ron Frierson, Director of Sales for the Embassy Suites Atlanta - Alpharetta. It’s great to work for a company like WCG Hotels that values the communities it serves.”
“Come bring an unwrapped toy to make the holidays bright for a local child,” encouraged Frierson.
This year, WCG is also offering a special “Donate Toys for Tots” rate which includes an additional $1 to the best rate available. That extra dollar is then matched by the hotel and donated to the Toys for Tots foundation for a total of $2 per room night.
The objectives of Toys for Tots are 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.

The Embassy Suites Atlanta - Alpharetta will be collecting toys until Dec. 14th. They encourage everyone who is able to come in and donate an unwrapped, new toy. The hotel is located in Alpharetta off GA 400 exit 9 at 5955 North Point Parkway, Alpharetta, GA.
