Birch Equipment Rental & Sales last week announced it is giving customers an easy way to donate to Toys for Tots and is offering special incentive programs for helping communities in Whatcom, Skagit and Island Counties in Washington.

Customers have two chances to earn a $10 Birch Equipment gift card for their generosity. From November 22-29, shoppers who donate at least $50 in toys purchased online at www.birchequipment.com will receive a $10 Birch gift card. Then from December 6-13, customers that donate $50 in toys purchased at Birch Equipment stores oronline will also earn a $10 Birch gift card.

“The online-only promotion is convenient for customers and our team members,” said Jordan Mellich, Bellingham store manager. “We’re giving our crews some much deserved time off around the Thanksgiving Holiday, so even though our stores will be closed 11/25 & 11/26, our customers can still take care of business.”

Birch is also offering an incentive to area companies for supporting Toys for Tots. Birch will make a match in toys depending on how much a business spends and donates in toys from the equipment company’s locations. To learn more about the Birch Toy Match Program, contact [email protected].

Birch carries a large selection of toys including items from Melissa and Doug, Ugly Dolls, K’NEX and Erector.

“We started adding construction-themed toys to our stores a number of years ago and had so much fun, that we’ve brought in more and different toys, puzzles, art supplies and educational items ever since,” said Cara Buckingham, information director. “Sure, we like to work hard. But we’re basically kids at heart, and we want our customers to have fun when they come in. It’s definitely worth the trip to one of our locations.”

Birch is entering its 13th year as an active supporter of Toys for Tots.

Based in Bellingham, Wash., with stores in Bellingham, Anacortes and Mount Vernon, Wash., and Sitka, Alaska, Birch Equipment is No. 94 on the RER 100.
