Precise Receives Record-Breaking Donations for Toys for Tots 2023
LEXINGTON PARK, MD, December 22, 2023 – The Precise Systems Charitable Contributions Committee is proud to announce they received over 600 toy donations from multiple office locations around the country and from their remote workforce. These donations included bikes, board games, stuffed animals, dolls, Legos, books, balls, arts and crafts, toy cars, and stocking stuffers.
Precise has been partnering with Toys for Tots each holiday season for over five years now, and each year, employees have gone above and beyond to show their support of the Precise Charitable mission to #GiveWhereYouLive. This year, however, the company received more donations than ever. With three office locations, as well as a plethora of remote employees all over the nation, Precise collected over 600 toys that they were able to donate to local Toys for Tots chapters in three different states.
Scott Pfister, Precise Systems Chief Executive Officer and President, has a special connection to Toys for Tots. As a retired Marine, Scott is passionate about supporting Marine organizations and instills the value of #GiveWhereYouLive in every Precise employee. Scott crafted a creative challenge to increase participation in this year’s toy drive at Precise, encouraging the leadership to ramp up participation with some friendly competition. Precise Systems Senior Vice President, Greg ‘Curly’ Anderson took first place for most toys collected within a business area, and his efforts were celebrated at the Precise Holiday Employee Recognition event. The Precise team gathered to sort, count, and load toys onto the trailer to be taken to one of the local Toys for Tots chapters in Lexington Park, MD.
This is the company’s final charitable initiative for 2023, and it proved to be one of the most successful campaigns in Precise history. Through the presence, generosity, and good cheer of their employees, coupled with the company’s dedication to our nation, Precise is honored to bring joy to the holiday season and provide a tangible sign of hope to America’s less fortunate children.

Precise Systems Toys for Tots Drive
LEXINGTON PARK, MD, December 18, 2017 — In accordance with the Precise Systems Core Value of “Putting People First”, the Precise Systems Charitable Contributions Committee provides an opportunity for our company to put people first by offering support to philanthropic organizations in the communities in which our employees live and work. To honor the spirit of holiday giving, the Committee hosted a Holiday Toy Drive benefitting Toys for Tots.
Precise Systems has a long-standing tradition of supporting the Toys for Tots campaigns within in our communities. With the recent growth of the company, Precise was able to set a personal best record for collection totals! The team challenged each other to an internal competition where Business Units competed against one another to see who could collect the most toys. Business Unit 5, led by Senior Vice President, Pete Williams took the crown for most toys collected but truly, the community’s children in need are the real winners here.
The Precise Team’s total collection reached over 325 toys which will be distributed throughout the local communities. A special thank you to the Marine Corps Aviation Detachment Patuxent River and Marine Corps League Patuxent River Detachment 1305 for their help in arranging the pick-up and distribution of the toys collected. Pictured above, the Precise Leadership team presented the Toys to Colonel Girard (Commanding Officer – Marine Aviation Detachment Patuxent River, China Lake & Port Mugu) and Sergeant Roy at our recent Holiday Open House event on December 14, 2017 in Maryland. Also pictured, the Precise Systems Office in Crane, Indiana collected toys for the Toys for Tots campaign in their community. Thank you all for your generosity – together, we have put the people of our communities first and brought the magic of the holidays to a lot of families in need. Wishing you and yours a wonderful Holiday Season!
