Traton Homes Hosts Successful Annual "Stuff a Bus" for Cobb Christmas

Metro Atlanta home builder collects more than 1,000 toys to help local families in need this holiday season

This month, Traton Homes partnered with Cobb Christmas to spread holiday cheer to those in need. The builder’s 11th annual “Stuff a Bus” event was a success, and, thanks to over $8,000 in donations, Traton was able to fill a Cobb Community Transit Bus with more than 1,000 toys to help local families.

“We have been a member of the Cobb County community for over four decades, and we are delighted to partner with Cobb Christmas as an annual tradition to give joy to our neighbors in need,” said Kimberly Garwood, director of marketing at Traton Homes. “This year, we once again expanded our toy collection efforts by opening our model homes and corporate office as drop-off locations, and we want to thank the generous members of the community who helped with this effort.”

In addition to the toys collected at drop-off locations, Traton Homes collected donations from its vendors and employees. “The outpouring of generosity from our employees, vendors and neighbors is so appreciated,” added Eric Price, CEO at Traton Homes. “Many thanks to each and every one who continues to make this project a huge success year after year.”
