2019 Toy Store
In 2019, Ferro, Kuba, Mangano P.C. and Liga De Justicia held their 8th annual Toy Store. At this event, the firm transforms their office into a massive toy store and holiday wonderland. We invite families from underprivileged communities to bring the family; the children get to meet and take pictures with Santa, as the parents get to "shop" for toys for their children. The holidays can be a stressful time for underprivileged families, where parents often need to decide between paying their bills or giving their children a few small presents. This event helps alleviate the pressure and weight that is put on our communities during the holiday season. In 2019, we were able to provide over 250 families and 750 children with toys for the holiday season!

2020 Drive-Thru Toy Store
In 2020, Ferro, Kuba, Mangano P.C. and Liga De Justicia held their 9th annual Toy Store. We were faced with the harsh reality that the event this would would look much different than in years past due to COVID-19. After months of diligent planning, we created a socially-distanced, covid-safe, drive-thru toy store in the firm's parking lot. While the children didn't get to have their pictures taken with Santa this year, we were still able to give out toys to over 300 familes and 800 children!
