At Big Box Storage, we believe in giving back to the community, and we’re thrilled to once again support a cause that truly makes a difference in the lives of children. We’re proud to partner with San Diego’s Star 94.1 radio station and Rady Children’s Hospital to provide storage for over 100,000 toys as part of the annual “AJ’s Kids Crane” event.
For the 10th consecutive year, beloved radio host AJ Machado will take to the skies, literally. As part of the “AJ’s Kids Crane” event, AJ will be lifted onto a scissor lift crane, where he will stay until the community donates more than 105,000 new, unwrapped toys for the young patients at Rady Children’s Hospital. Suspended 40 feet in the air on an 8′ x 10′ platform, AJ’s temporary home symbolizes the dedication and commitment to helping children facing serious health challenges. In 2010, the goal was met in just eight days, and we’re confident that this year will be another huge success.
Throughout the event, all donated toys will be placed in Big Box Storage containers for safekeeping. Once the event concludes, we’ll transport the storage units back to our secure indoor facility in San Diego, ensuring that the toys remain in pristine condition until they’re needed at the hospital throughout the year.
“While we always love supporting community events, AJ’s Kids Crane holds a special place in our hearts,” said Rita Hurley, representative for Big Box Storage, Inc. “Knowing that our storage services help bring smiles to children at Rady Children’s Hospital makes it all the more meaningful.”
The event kicks off on Friday, November 4th, 2011, in the parking lot of IKEA at 2149 Fenton Parkway, San Diego, CA 92108, and will continue until AJ reaches his toy collection goal. If you’d like to donate or learn more, visit Star 94.1’s website.
