Self-storage facility members of USstoragesearch.com raised nearly $5,000 for the U.S Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program during the 2008 holiday season. During November and December, 1,876 self-storage facilities nationwide offered a free month of storage to customers who donated $20 or more to the foundation.
In addition to assisting families in need, the fundraiser helped self-storage facilities gain exposure in their individual markets. More than 100,705 news websites posted press releases relating to the event, which resulted in approximately 264 storage-unit rentals for the participating members. Many facilities also acted as toy drop-off stations.

It shows us that people are still generous and willing to help those in need,” said said Megan Eckert, executive vice president of USstoragesearch.com. “Toys for Tots is a great foundation to work with, and our members are so generous.”
