Santa + Vivint paid Utah a little visit… 🎅 On Dec. 17, Utah Jazz players Taylor Hendricks and Cody Williams joined Vivint to be Santa’s helpers for 1,000+ Utah kiddos. The smiles were wider than candy canes. This year, Vivint raised more than $300,000, is gifting to 3,500 children, and is donating in 87 locations nationwide Vivint shares. Since its initiation in 2008, Vivint’s Sub for Santa program has raised more than 3 million dollars, gifted to more than 44,000 children, and donated in 1,200 locations. "Sub for Santa is our favorite part of the holiday season at Vivint. It reminds us of the power of community. We are grateful for everyone who has given both time and money to make an impact for these kids. They make it possible for Vivint to give joy to children who might have gone without and light up their holiday season. That’s what truly matters to us.” - Holly Mero, Sr. Director, Strategy and Philanthropy #vivint #subforsanta #utahsubforsanta #utahphilanthropy #giveback
