Barrett-Jackson Collector Car Auctions is proud to host the Barrett-Jackson Toy Drive with Reach Out WorldWide to benefit Childhelp for the second consecutive year at FuelFest on Saturday, December 9 at WestWorld of Scottsdale.
Generous donors and automotive enthusiasts attending FuelFest may visit the Barrett-Jackson display to donate a new, unopened, unwrapped toy that will go directly to Childhelp to assist in providing children in need with gifts during the holiday season. All toys collected will be delivered to the Childhelp Children’s Center of Arizona. In addition to toys, generous donors may contribute financially towards the Barrett-Jackson Toy Drive benefiting Childhelp here. Childhelp is a non-profit organization dedicated to meeting the physical, emotional, educational, and spiritual needs of abused, neglected and at-risk children.
Toy donations may also be dropped off at Barrett-Jackson’s corporate headquarters beginning today through December 15. Barrett-Jackson’s headquarters are located at 15555 N. 79th Place, Scottsdale, AZ 85260, and guests are asked to drop off new toys in the donation bins located in the main lobby.
Partnering with Barrett-Jackson for this holiday toy drive is Reach Out WorldWide, a disaster relief non-profit organization founded by Paul Walker in 2010 that augments local expertise when natural disasters strike around the world by providing support with first responders and other professionals in the medical and construction related fields. Walker’s brother, Cody Walker, is the CEO of Reach Out WorldWide and the co-founder of FuelFest, a global event that blends the enthusiast’s passion for the automotive world with live music and racing. As is the case with all FuelFest events, including the December 9 event in Scottsdale, a portion of the proceeds will benefit Reach Out WorldWide.
“We’re delighted to partner with Reach Out WorldWide and FuelFest for a toy drive once again this holiday season,” said Carolyn Jackson, V.P. of Brand Strategy and Chief Philanthropy Officer for Barrett-Jackson. “Utilizing our platform and working alongside our community of enthusiasts to support those in need is a foundational pillar of Barrett-Jackson and it’s a privilege to team up with Childhelp to assist the amazing work they are doing for children suffering from unimaginable hardships.”
