The holiday season is a time for giving, and the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce Montgomery County (HCCMC) was proud to continue one of our favorite traditions: our Holiday Market & Toy Drive, held on December 18.

Through our ongoing partnership with Interfaith Works, an HCCMC member, we collected more than 140 toys—a record number—to help bring smiles and brighten the holidays for children and families across Montgomery County.

This year, we also launched our first Holiday Market, a new initiative designed to showcase the incredible products and services offered by our members. More than 80 participants joined us for an evening of shopping, networking, and community connection, featuring local entrepreneurs offering fine jewelry, professional photography, flowers, food, and other unique holiday gifts.

We are grateful to the Rockville Police Department for supporting our toy drive and to everyone who donated and helped make this effort a success. Your generosity makes a real difference and allows us to continue supporting families in our community during the holiday season.

Thank you to all our exhibitors, members, partners, and attendees for making this event such a memorable experience. We look forward to growing this new tradition and continuing to celebrate the spirit of entrepreneurship and giving within our community.
