SunRidge Management Group Announces Winners of the 2025 Toys for Tots Box Decoration Contest

|

Dallas, TX – SunRidge Management Group is proud to announce the winners of our 2025 Toys for Tots Box Decoration Contest, a cherished annual tradition that brings together creativity, teamwork, and a shared commitment to giving back.

This year’s contest was especially meaningful as it marked SunRidge’s 10th year partnering with the Marine Toys for Tots program. For a decade, our teams have come together to support children and families in their local communities, helping spread joy and holiday cheer during the season when it matters most. The Toys for Tots mission holds a special place in our hearts, and seeing our communities rally around it year after year is something we are incredibly proud of.

Adding to the excitement, the 2025 decoration theme was “Gnome for the Holidays,” and our teams fully embraced it. From whimsical details to festive creativity, each decorated box reflected the holiday spirit and imagination that make this contest so special. Submissions were voted on by the entire SunRidge team, making this a true company-wide celebration of creativity and community. The competition was incredibly close, and judging was no easy task—every box submitted truly felt like a work of art.

Before revealing the winners, we want to sincerely thank every team who participated. From beautifully decorated boxes to the generous toy donations collected, each submission reflected the compassion, creativity, and holiday spirit that define SunRidge.
