Traton Homes Partners with Cobb Christmas to Spread Holiday Cheer

Metro Atlanta home builder, Traton Homes, invites individuals to help it support Cobb Christmas by donating new, unwrapped toys.

With the holidays just around the corner, Traton Homes is excited to once again announce that it has partnered with Cobb Christmas to spread holiday cheer to those in need. Now in its 10th year of partnering with the non-profit organization, Traton Homes invites its vendors and the community to join in the effort by donating new, unwrapped toys.

To make donating convenient, Traton Homes has designated each of its new home community sales centers as drop-off locations for Cobb Christmas, and will be accepting donations now through Sunday, December 7, 2014. Additionally, individuals can drop-off toys at Traton’s corporate office located at 720 Kennesaw Avenue in Marietta, Monday through Friday.

After the toys have been collected, Traton Homes will “stuff-a-bus” with all of the donations. Then, the toys will be transported to Jim Miller Park where they will be sorted and distributed to low-income and working-poor families of Cobb County. Toys are provided to hundreds of children ages infant through 18. In addition to the toys, a box of food is given to each family, so that they can prepare a holiday meal in their own home.
