Giving back—and bringing the community together—is really important to Verve team members. In fact, it’s one of our seven guiding principles.

Giving back—and bringing the community together—is really important to Verve team members. In fact, it’s one of our seven guiding principles. That’s why we were proud to partner with The Paine to host the Children’s Free Candlelight Tours on Friday, November 17.

The Paine and Verve invited children to enjoy Nutcracker in the Castle for free on opening evening, and families were encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped gift to place under the tree for families in need right here in our community. Verve team members greeted a record-setting 1,355 Nutcracker guests, and families donated 167 toys for Toys for Tots.

Verve also provided a professional photographer to capture family photos—which are easy to download and use for your family holiday card—completely free of charge. Check out the family photos here.

Spreading holiday cheer throughout the community gives us all sorts of warm fuzzy feelings, and we were proud to partner with The Paine to bring families together this holiday season.
