Carmen Mormino of Rodeo Realty held his 2nd annual “Holiday Clothing/Toy Drive” on December 13th in Westlake Village. All donations were dispersed to the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, along with shelters in the area. Carmen reports over 50 people donated toys to the cause, and their support is greatly appreciated. Prior to the event, Carmen encouraged participants to donate items like clothing and/or toys to help those in need this holiday season. ”I know, as a community, how fortunate we all are to live where we live, and live the life we do. I feel that by doing this, we can possibly make this holiday a bit better for those in need.” Last year, the inaugural drive generated an overwhelming amount of donations, but luckily the chilly weather did not stop those from coming out to support Carmen and his cause. Carmen, his wife Mary Lee, and daughters Mia and Lola made it even more of a festive turnout by having fresh baked cookies, coffee from Starbucks, and piping hot chocolate for patrons. Carmen added, “The weather made it all the more special, and truly brought out the holiday spirit in all!”
