TVF&R TOY & JOY PROGRAM 2012
For several decades, TVF&R has been dedicated to assisting less fortunate children during the holidays.  This year, we remain dedicated to participating in a regional effort to collect toys.

FAMILIES NEEDING HOLIDAY HELP
Please call 2-1-1 for a comprehensive list of agencies assisting families and children in need. Families in Washington County can also attend the Girl Scouts Christmas Breakfast at the Hillsboro Community Center, 750 SE 8th Ave. Hillsboro, 97123, on Christmas Day from 7:30-10am

DONATING TOYS
During the month of December, individuals wishing to contribute toys may drop off a new, unwrapped toy or gift at any TVF&R fire station or District Office (click HERE for a list of District addresses).  All toys and gifts received will be transported to KGW News Channel 8 where they will be distributed to Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington County agencies sponsoring families in need.  Please note that toys for infants and gifts for teens are always in short supply.  Unfortunately we are unable to accept used toys or used stuffed animals.  Alternative outlets for those items include Goodwill, St. Vincent DePaul, or local domestic violence centers.

MONETARY DONATIONS:
TVF&R does not accept donations for the Toy & Joy Program.  We encourage you to give directly to a charitable organization of your choice or to give back to your community.  Click HERE for volunteer opportunities.
