Another Successful Toy Drive From Zanchin Auto Group

Santa’s Place

It was the most wonderful time of year! In support of the Zanchin Auto Group Toy Drive , families were able to visit Santa’s Place at dealerships across the GTA  from November 17^th to December 2^nd  to capture a holiday photo with Santa Claus and his elves.

It was a popular event with over 1,500 holiday portraits taken this year. The portraits were available in magnetic print out as well as digital copies, making it truly the perfect holiday souvenir.

Santa’s Place was decked with the most merry of decorations including a tree, presents, an electric train and much more. After their photo, families were invited to stay and enjoy the colouring station, write a letter to Santa Claus and satisfy their sweet tooth with a special holiday dessert.

In support of our Toy Drive, those who visited Santa’s Place were encouraged to bring an unwrapped gift as a donation. We are very grateful for all those who helped us to fill our holiday Sprinters with toys going to a wonderful cause in partnership with the Toronto Fire Department Toy Drive.

Zanchin Auto Group embraces community efforts. Together bringing employees, friends, families, and the Toronto Fire Fighters together in time for the holiday season.
