Sparks of Love Toy Drive at the Fire Station in AV

Contribute to Firefighters' Spark of Love Toy Drive



The public is invited to help needy children during the holidays through the Spark of Love Toy Drive that runs through December 24.


The Spark of Love campaign began in 1993 in cooperation with ABC7 and local firefighters throughout Orange, Riverside, Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Ventura counties.


Spark of Love combines efforts with the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program, Orange County Social Services Agency's Operation Santa Claus program and the St. Vincent de Paul Holiday Charities program. Working together as the Orange County Toy Collaborative, these groups collect and distribute about 250,000 toys annually to underprivileged children throughout Orange County.


Community members can drop off new, unwrapped toys or sports equipment to Aliso Viejo Fire Station 57, which is located at 57 Journey.






For more information, call OCFA Education Specialist Polly Bowen at 949-349-9425.
