PITTSBURGH, PA (12.07.25) — On Sunday, December 7th, the 10th Annual Tows for Tots Toy Drive was the place to be in Pittsburgh. Community members were invited to gather at the Castle Shannon Volunteer Fireman’s Hall from 9 AM to noon. The family event encouraged attendees to enjoy coffee, donuts, friendship, and festive atmosphere—all while donating new, unwrapped presents for children. It was a powerful show of generosity from the Pittsburgh community.


Team Nutz, represented by Ed and Nina Natel, was once again on-site, showcasing the eye-catching Team Nutz Jeep and Excursion. Many attendees stopped to admire the vehicles, both of which played Christmas music throughout the morning.
When the event wrapped at noon, more than 100 tow trucks lined up for a 10-mile parade through the city of Pittsburgh. The Team Nutz Excursion held the final position in the procession, spreading holiday cheer by blasting Christmas music along the entire route.


Ed Natel shared, “It’s so amazing to see so many smiling faces and people having fun at the Fireman’s Hall. When we hit the street for the parade, people were dancing along the road, and everyone was happy—honking horns and waving. Team Nutz will certainly be back next year for the 11th Annual Toes for Tots Toy Drive.”
