Thanks to The Road Theatre Company, former EngAGE Program Director Elizabeth Sampson, and Program Director Sandra Vargas for another successful Holiday Toy Drive for Vermont Family Apartments in Los Angeles, CA! The Roadies’ generosity meant that 52 children residing at the community received toys, and 49 families received a gift card. The families were so grateful and the children’s smiles were priceless!
There’s usually a big holiday party arranged by Vermont Program Director Sandra Vargas, with lots of food, music, and Santa in attendance to hand out the gifts. But, for the second year, the pandemic forced a change of plans. That didn’t affect the holiday spirit of the Roadies who once again happily donated to make sure the holidays were joyful for all!
Elizabeth, a member of the Road Theatre Company for over 20 years, spearheaded the project for a decade and continued this year even though she no longer lives in Los Angeles.
Road Theatre Company member Jonathan Nichols coordinated the shopping and the gift wrapping by the Roadies. Program Director Sandra picked up the gifts from Jonathan and handled delivery.
Thank you to everyone involved in this wonderful holiday tradition!
The Road Theatre Company is based at North Hollywood Senior Arts Colony (NoHo SAC).
