FORT MYERS, Fla. (December 6, 2023) – Allyn International (Allyn), a local supply chain consulting firm, will be donating over 100 toys and a $5,000 check to Foster Care Advisory Services (FCAS). Each quarter at Allyn, an employee is given the opportunity to raise funds for a nonprofit of their choice. For Allyn’s fourth quarter of the year, the fundraiser for FCAS is run by Allyn employee, Katrina Ramsey, where toys and funds are donated by other employees.
For the FCAS fundraiser, employees are given a list of foster children to sign up and sponsor by giving them at least two items on their wish-list. A Christmas tree is set up and employees bring their donations throughout the holiday season. This year, approximately more than 300 gifts were donated to over 100 children, with a value of $5,000. Gifts include toys, clothes, technology, educational resources, and other items foster care children are in need of.
