We are running a toy drive at AIM, can you help?

We really need your help if you can run this press release as soon as is convenient for you. Project Phoenix House has collaborated with AIM to run a toy and gift drive for underprivileged teens.

I need as much help as I can get from you because without you it would be very very hard to reach enough people in the adult industry to lend a helping hand and donate gifts for Xmas.

The press release is below. The drive runs until Dec 18th 2007. Your help would be very vital and I thank you very much in advance for doing all you can.

Thank you,

Project Phoenix House

Phoenix House California is holding a toy drive for underprivileged teens this Christmas 2007. Phoenix House CA operates three residential academies for teens in Los Angeles, San Diego and Orange County. Phoenix Academies are residential high schools that provide comprehensive drug abuse treatment to teens while helping them to catch up academically.

Unfortunately, this year 2007, funding has been sparse. To give these underprivileged teens a wonderful Christmas, they are volunteering their services to conduct a drive in an effort to reach out to the community for donated toys and gifts.

The Toy drive will begin Dec 3rd and end Dec 18th 2007. All gifts donated need to be unwrapped and attached are guidelines as to what types of gifts are appropriate for the age groups involved.

The drop area for all donated toys and gifts are: (Please see list of acceptable gifts guidelines to follow)

AIM – Sherman Oaks 4630 Van Nuys Blvd, Sherman Oaks, CA 91403 (818) 981 5681

AIM – Granada Hills 10727 White Oak Ave, #206 Granada Hills, CA 91344 (818) 366 8866

So please reach deep into your hearts and donate whatever you can to make this Christmas a wonderful and memorable year for troubled teens at Phoenix House California.
