Former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger handed some of the 10,000 toys that were given away to children in a festive celebration.
"I've been doing this for 30+ years, and the reason is because when I came to this country, my friends from Gold's Gym had a huge Christmas for me and invited me to their house, they gave me Christmas gifts, they had this beautiful Christmas tree, and I felt so included here in America, even though I was a foreigner," he said in a video posted to his X account. "So I wanted to do the same thing when I had the money ... It makes me feel good that I can share that kind of kindness."
