For the last 5 years, John Strandberg of Hawaii Tech Support has hosted a toy drive to benefit kids that are in need during the holiday season. A group of business people that meet for no reason than to have a cocktail after work decided they wanted to do something for kids during the holidays. With only two weeks of planning the first Jingle and Mingle was held with only 20 people in attendance, they were able to collect 45 new toys! Over the ensuing years the event has expanded. Now it incorporates business networking with giving and the response has been phenomenal. The last two years there was an upward of 200 attendees with toy donations in the hundreds! Now, able to impact more children in a positive way. A door prize component has been added for the last couple of years and that has help to draw more attendees which helps more needy local kids. This year's non-profit partner is HUGS Hawaii.
Partnering with Wisp Restaurant and Lounge as the venue sponsor and Rotary Means Business as a marketing sponsor, they are hoping to draw an even larger attendance, therefore more toys. The toy drive is to be held on Thursday November 30, 2017 at 5pm till 9pm. It is a free to attend event. No host drinks and special food menu will be available that evening.
