This year, over 5,000 toys were donated to the organization.
The month of the December is the busiest time of year for Generations Foundation’s Adrian and Natalie Bercovici, who host and cater holiday events for the less fortunate.
“We are looking forward to a day off and less stress,” Natalie Bercovici laughed.
The toy giveaway has been going on for 18 years; the couple say their goal has always been to help those in need.
