The toy drive was held in conjunction with Starmark’s annual Holiday Party at the agency’s downtown Fort Lauderdale headquarters. More than 200 partygoers joined in the giving.

Sharing with those who are less fortunate is the most precious gift of the holiday season, says Starmark’s CEO, Dan Estes. It was a wonderful experience to join with friends, colleagues and clients in a celebration that makes such a big difference for so many.
