AIA Orange County is hosting a COVID19 friendly
Toy & Food Drive for
families in need.
AIA Orange County Holiday Mixer
Come and Join the Holiday Festivities!
AIAOC will be inducting the 2022 Board of Directors and presenting this year’s
President’s Award and Service Award at the chapter's holiday mixer.
For many years now, AIAOC has partnered with Santa Ana Blue Print - SABP and Santa Claus by collecting toys for Families Forward. Families Forward is a nonprofit agency located in Lake Forest that depends upon the support of the OC community to provide homeless families or families at risk of homelessness with tools and education to maintain self-sufficiency. The primary goal is to move families in crisis to stability.
Please bring an unwrapped toy and a food item.
Lists of the most needed items can be found here.
The most needed food items are: Cereal, Pasta Sauce, Peanut Butter, Canned Chicken, Canned Tuna, Canned Beans, Canned Soup, Canned Fruit, Canned Vegetables and Baby Wipes. Also greatly needed are single-use face masks, hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes.
Santa is making his way down from the North Pole to join the holiday fun. Children (and adults too!) can drop their wish letters in the special North Pole mailbox and get their photo taken with Santa. If your child would like to drop a letter in the North Pole Mailbox, they can write their own or use this template.
