The team at Arrowhead Credit Union has been busy making Christmas wishes come true for more than 650 disadvantaged children.

The San Bernardino credit union has donated $11,000 in toys to the Children's Fund during the 27th Annual Celebration of Giving toy drive.

"Every year the number of children that need our assistance grows and we were worried about meeting their needs, especially in light of recent tragedies. But every year, Arrowhead Credit Union comes through –this year with more than 650 gifts," Jane Nottingham, events coordinator for Children's Fund said.  "It's amazing how the credit union supports at-risk children in our community."

Though community partnerships, Children's Fund has provided vulnerable children support, opportunity, and hope by breaking destructive cycles.

"Our team wanted to make Christmas wishes come true in a big way this year," Ann Wadagnolo, vice president audit at the $936 million credit union said. "It breaks my heart when a request card from a child asks for a simple wish, like a blanket or pair of socks.  Every child should have the basic necessities and a special gift to celebrate the holidays."
