The holiday season is here — a time filled with gratitude, generosity, and the joy of giving. At Pest Pros Pest Solutions, giving back isn’t a seasonal project; it’s woven into the fabric of who we are. From sponsoring local sports teams to uplifting nonprofits like All About Hope, serving our community is one of our core values. And every year, our Season of Giving Toy Drive becomes a powerful reminder of how much impact we can make when we rally together.
This year, we are proud to partner once again with United Way California Capital Region, whose mission is focused on improving the lives of local families. Their goal this season is bold and inspiring: collect 2,000 toys for children in need. These toys go directly to families throughout Sacramento and the Yuba–Sutter region, many of whom are facing financial hardship during what should be a joyful time of year.
As living costs rise and budgets tighten, more parents are worried about how they’ll provide gifts for their children. With your help, we can help lighten that burden.
🎄 Why the Season of Giving Matters
The holidays can be especially difficult for families who are navigating financial challenges, unexpected hardships, or simply trying to keep up with everyday expenses. For children, the season should be magical — full of wonder, excitement, and the joy of feeling remembered.
A single toy can make a world of difference.
A bike can give a child freedom.
A doll or action figure can spark imagination.
A board game brings families together.
For many local families, these gifts are more than toys — they are moments of joy, hope, and connection. When you donate, you’re not just checking a box. You’re changing someone’s holiday.
🎁 How Our Community Has Already Stepped Up
Every year, we are blown away by the generosity of our clients, partners, and neighbors. Our warehouse has already begun filling with an incredible range of toys:
Brand-new bikes
Legos, action figures, and dolls
Art supplies and craft kits
Board games and puzzles
STEM learning toys
Stuffed animals and sensory toys
Each donation tells a story. Some come from families who have made giving part of their holiday tradition. Others come from clients who want to support the same community we serve every day. Even local businesses have stepped up with bulk donations, rallying their teams to make an impact.
But with thousands of families to support, we still need your help to reach the 2,000-toy goal before the drive ends on December 14th.

🤝 A Partnership With Purpose
Our partnership with United Way is more than a holiday event — it reflects our shared commitment to helping families thrive. United Way works tirelessly year-round to support programs that provide food, education, financial stability, and essential resources.
By helping them reach 2,000 toys, we’re supporting their long-term mission to uplift local families and invest in the well-being of our communities.
At Pest Pros, we believe that strong communities are built when businesses step up and serve alongside nonprofits, families, and local leaders. This toy drive is just one example of what can happen when everyone plays a part.
