APX Sub for Santa

So APX has started a tradition 3 years ago where we raise the money and buy Christmas presents for Sub for Santa children, this year we were able to raise (from employee donations)over $100,000 and were able to provide Christmas to over 1,200 children. We split up into teams and I believe that I had the best team out of the bunch, my team alone shopped for 63 children while other teams only did 15. The first day we went shopping for all of the children, then the next night we wrapped the gifts and then we had the amazing opportunity to hand deliver them to the families that we shopped for. What a humbling experience, it makes your realize how blessed you really are! I love the company that I work for and the opportunity to serve like and put others before ourselves. What an amazing way to start he Holidays!!!!
Thank you APX!
Tyler was so great, he shopped for 12 children on his own.

Ben and Mark shopping like crazy!
The bed of Lauren's truck is clear full of gifts after we were finished shopping and heading back to the APX gym to drop them off.
These are the gifts that my team bought for just our children, we had 63 children to buy for.

Hadley was helping wrap and it was so cute...


We had the service techs from all over the U.S. helping us wrap the presents. We couldn't have gotten them all wrapped without them.
