It was a great team effort by everyone,” states Colin Horwitz of Tanimura & Antle, the organizer of the employee donation effort.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">In order to fill holiday food and toy packages the Salinas Salvation Army relies on support from local companies, the Salvation Army red kettles outside of retail locations and the annual KSBW Share Your Holiday event, according to a press release.

The Salvation Army distribution center located at Tanimura & Antle is without a doubt the best space possible in Salinas and for three weeks in December it is a beacon of hope to literally thousands of Salinas Valley families.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href="http://www.taproduce.com" target="_new"> Tanimura & Antle </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
