Cars & Social is proud to announce the successful donation presentation following its 2025 Toys for Tots Gala, where the community came together to make a meaningful impact for children in need during the holiday season.

The Toys for Tots Gala was proudly hosted at Addison Park in Keyport, New Jersey, and Cars & Social would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to the entire Addison Park team for playing a major role in the success of the event. From start to finish, their professionalism, hospitality, and attention to detail helped create an unforgettable evening for our guests and supporters.

To make the night even more impactful, Addison Park made a generous donation to the Toys for Tots program after the event concluded, further increasing the total contribution and reinforcing their commitment to giving back to the community. Their support truly helped elevate the event and its mission.

Through this event, Cars & Social raised $5,000 in monetary donations and collected over 1,500 toys, with the donated toys valued at more than $5,000—bringing the total contribution to over $10,000 for the New Jersey Toys for Tots program.

To officially present the donation, Joseph L. Boscia Jr. and Emilio Duran, founders of Cars & Social, met with the New Jersey Toys for Tots Marines at Cuzin’s Seafood & Clam Bar in Marlboro, NJ. The restaurant, a longtime supporter and host of past Cars & Social events, generously welcomed the group and provided a warm, hospitable setting for the presentation and dinner.

During the visit, Boscia and Duran formally presented the donation check to Gunnery Sergeant John Colin Sardine, representing the New Jersey Toys for Tots Marine Corps Reserve. Gunnery Sergeant Sardine expressed his appreciation for Cars & Social’s continued support and emphasized how impactful the organization has been to the Toys for Tots mission. He shared that he looks forward to working with Cars & Social on an annual basis, noting that the group has become a valuable asset to the Toys for Tots foundation and a strong example of community-driven giving.

Events like this reinforce Cars & Social’s commitment to using its platform not only to unite automotive enthusiasts, but also to give back in meaningful ways. With continued partnerships, community involvement, and a growing member base, Cars & Social looks forward to supporting Toys for Tots and other charitable initiatives for many years to come.
