2023 RVFD & FPD Holiday Toy Drive!

A Huge THANK YOU to the RVFD Community!

December 19, 2023

Earlier today we were able to load up Santa's Sleigh and deliver hundreds of donated books, toys, and sporting equipment to the Fairfax - San Anselmo Children's Center located at Deer Park School in Fairfax. Principal Heidi Tomsky was overwhelmed with joy as the community really shined bright this year in donating an immense amount of toys for the children. There were numerous local events that were held over the last two weeks that also helped to collect donated toys as well. In conjunction with the toy donations, we also received hundreds of dollars in gift cards that the families will be able to use for diapers and other supplies. This was an absolute huge success. 

There are currently 90 children who attend this non profit school and are benefiting from the services that they provide. The Toy Drive that we conduct each year really goes a long way in making their Holidays as bright as can be. Thank you for all your help in making this program successful each year. Merry Christmas!!

 

Each year, many children who reside in the Ross Valley, will have a less than Merry holiday season because their families have fallen upon hard times.

If you would like to help a local child, please bring UNWRAPPED toys to any of the ROSS VALLEY FIRE DEPARTMENT STATIONS by Monday, December 18th, 2023.
