Lagina Plumbing Replaces Fireworks with Toys

Dec. 28, 2008 -- The U.S. Marine Corps Reserves’ Toys for Tots program received a substantial donation from Lagina Plumbing.
The Milwaukee-based commercial plumbing company made the donation with funds originally designated for a fireworks display in the city’s Historic Third Ward district. The fireworks had been planned as part of the Third Ward’s “Christmas in the Ward” kickoff, but were cancelled due to an unanticipated safety issue.
“We still wanted to do something on behalf of the Third Ward Association,” said Jim Lagina, president of Lagina Plumbing. “Jim Julka of Rubin’s Furniture suggested a donation to Toys for Tots, and we agreed that was an excellent alternative.”
Lagina Plumbing worked on the major buildout for the Milwaukee office of advertising firm Cramer-Krasselt in the space above Rubin’s Furniture.
Toys for Tots was started by a Marine Corps major in 1947 and adopted by the Corps in 1948. Since then, the program has provided more than 380 million toys to children in nearly 600 communities throughout the U.S.
