The 2013 Holiday season found the employees of Tata Global Beverages' Montvale, New Jersey office generously contributing over $1,800 to a local organization called People to People as part of the non-profit's "Project Joy" fundraiser.

With the money raised, Montvale's Employee Committee purchased gift cards, board games, building blocks, sports equipment, journals, scrapbooks, photo albums, craft kits, dolls, books and more.  All of these items were donated to the "Project Joy" store, which provided a gift-filled holiday to these local children.
