The toy drive donation caps off a charitable year for GWC Warranty in which employees contributed to a Christmas in July Food Drive sponsored by the United Way of Wyoming Valley and adopted the sixth grade class at Wilkes-Barre’s Dodson Elementary. The company also sponsored two trucks as part of the Commission on Economic Opportunity’s Food 4 Kids Summer Program, which supplies summertime meals for children who do not receive the same nutritional support that they do during the school year.
