The employees of Miami Lakes AutoMall stepped up once again for needy kids during the holiday season.
They donated more than 400 toys for boys and girls to open at Christmas that were distributed by Essie “Big Mama” Reed and her Team of Life charity.
The 24th annual event held at the dealership on Dec. 23 brought Reed and helpers to visit with their friends at the AutoMall.
