Integrity collects 26,000 toys for toy drive

Integrity Marketing Group (Integrity), a life and health insurance distributer as well as a wealth management and retirement planning solutions provider, has announced that it has collected toys, books, and stuffed animals for pediatric hospitals and children’s charity organizations all over the country.

Upon the completion of its third annual “Integrity Gives Back” Toy Drive, Integrity collected more than 26,000 toys, books, and stuffed animals through donations made by employees and partner companies.

“As my family has experienced firsthand, medical emergencies can be an overwhelming and unsettling experience for a child,” said Bryan Adams, co-founder and CEO of Integrity.

“The instant the surprise of a toy enters the situation, the mood changes immediately and brings joy into the room. During extended journeys of care, these toys provide a welcomed moment of normalcy and diversion,” he added.

The “Integrity Gives Back” initiative has increased in its third year with thousands of employees volunteering to assist with toy collection and delivery and has set a goal of collecting 20,000 books and toys for this year.

“The 2023 ‘Integrity Gives Back’ Toy Drive initiative has been an astounding success, thanks to the united efforts of our employees and partners in support of a cause we care about deeply,” said Steve Young, Integrity’s chairman of the board.

“We hope that each donation will bring families together in a moment of happiness, which aligns perfectly with Integrity’s mission to help them prepare for the good days ahead,” he added.

The collected donations will be given to organizations such as Toys for Tots, Children’s Miracle Network, Ronald McDonald House Charities, and several pediatric hospitals.

“Integrity, their employees and partners, as well as the Adams family have shown tremendous generosity to the patients at Children’s Health,” said Laran O’Neill, chief advancement officer at Children’s Medical Center Foundation.

“The over 21,000 toys that Integrity is donating to Children’s Health will have a major impact on the healthcare that we provide children in the Dallas area.”
