Patients at Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital (LLUCH) got an early Christmas delivery, courtesy of Lexus of Riverside. The luxury car dealer hosted the first ever Santa Toy Delivery on Tuesday, Dec. 22 delivering 100 toys to patients receiving care at the hospital.
“Lexus of Riverside is committed to helping and serving the community in many ways,” said Sandy Austell, General Manager, Lexus of Riverside, “We’re proud to partner with Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital to make these kids day a little brighter.”
After picking out their toys, kids were greeted by jolly old elf himself, Santa Claus, where he posed for photos with the children.
LLUCH patient, Brooklyn Lucas, 4, from Victorville picked out a red radio control car while interacting with St. Nick.
Lexus of Riverside has a history of generosity with the hospital, donating over $75,000 to the Big Hearts for Little Hearts Loma Linda Guild over the last three years. The Loma Linda Guild is committed to supporting the children at LLUCH by developing and supporting projects that address the critical needs of hospitalized children and their families.
