Paramount Women’s Club Toy Drive brings joy to kids
W
earing festive “We Are Paramount” T-shirts (and, of course, protective face masks) members of the Paramount Women’s Club held their first—and very successful—Holiday Toy Drive at the Paramount Chamber of Commerce building in December. More than 200 children received free toys. Club spokesperson Elisa Trasoras offered special thanks to the City of Paramount and the Chamber of Commerce staff for supporting the event and sent “shout outs to Mayor Peggy Lemons, David Johnson of Parks and Recreation and retired City Councilmember Daryl Hofmeyer.” She especially thanked all those who made so many children happy by donating toys.
Founded in 1928, Paramount Women’s Club has organized many charitable events for the community. For more information about this nonprofit organization, please call 562-861-0408.
