Balboa Capital, an online lender that provides financing solutions to small businesses nationwide, is continuing its annual tradition of making the holidays a little brighter for adults and children in need. The company is supporting local nonprofit organizations with cash donations, canned food and children’s toys.

“It’s the season of giving, and we feel it is important to give back to those in our community who aren’t as fortunate as the rest of us,” said Venecia Vega, customer service manager at Balboa Capital. “Our company is proud to support Second Harvest Food Bank and Someone Cares Soup Kitchen, two nonprofit organizations that do incredible work helping those in need. We are also participating in Operation Santa Claus, which is the only official Orange County holiday toy drive.”

This marks the seventh straight year that Balboa Capital has supported local charities during the holidays, and the momentum keeps on building. This holiday season, Balboa Capital’s employees will donate more than 500 canned food items to Second Harvest Food Bank, over 100 children’s toys to Operation Santa Claus, and several of its employees will be volunteering their time at Someone Cares Soup Kitchen. Balboa Capital is also providing a cash donation to all three of these organizations. “Our employees give from their hearts, and this generosity helps bring joy back into the lives of many people in our community,” said Ms. Vega, adding, “There is nothing more rewarding than putting smiles on peoples’ faces and making their holidays fun and festive.”
