Hurricane Productions will donate time and entertainment to the the New York City Housing Authority’s “Season of Sharing” – the department’s annual toy drive.

“Any cause or function that helps children is always high on our priority list,” said Hurricane Productions president Vincent Anthony. “Every entertainment company should find an event and give back to the community during the holiday season.”

The Annual Holiday Toy Drive is an opportunity for approximately 600 NYCHA resident children to celebrate the holiday season with donated toys (from Century 21 Department Stores, NY Giants, NY Knicks and Toys for Tots), refreshments (provided by Maramont Corp), and photo opportunities with Santa Claus (Community Coordinator Cornell Hampton). Other family entertainment will be provided by the Big Apple Circus, Agostino Arts Face Painters, The Lion Dancers Group, and The New York Chinese Free Mason Athletic Club.

Hurricane Productions is no stranger to working with children. The New Jersey-based DJ entertainment company also donates time and energy Rutgers University’s Dance Marathon every Spring.

Dance Marathon is a 32-hour event that raises money and awareness for the Embrace Kids Foundation located in New Brunswick, NJ. It is New Jersey’s largest student-run philanthropic event.
