Toys For Tots
The Pownal Fire & Rescue Company is joining Toys for Tots to help provide gifts to kids this holiday season.
Our kick-off is scheduled for Saturday, October 12th at the Pownal Pumpkin Fest. Please look for the Pownal Fire Truck at Town Hall parking lot to donate. Please bring a new unwrapped toy to donate.
In addition to Pumkin Fest, we will have a drop-off box at the Pownal Town Hall. (Other locations will be announced soon.)
Additional information:
- How can I make a cash donation?
We will have a “cash box” at Pumpkin Fest (hopefully at Town Hall on Election Day). Checks may be made out to: Marine Toys for Tots Foundation, 18251 Quantico Gateway Drive, Triangle VA 22172. Cash is also welcome. (Again, we hope to be at Election day as well.)
- What ages are supported by Toys for Tots: Up to age 15
Some suggestions for older kids (but not limited to): sporting equipment/bags/balls, books, backpacks, cosmetics, purses, watch/wallet gift sets, bath gift sets, board games, radio control cars/trucks, hand-held electronics, skateboards/helmets, curling irons, hair straighteners, and hair dryers.
- Is there a list of toys available to guide me with my donation?
Toys for Tots does not publish a list of appropriate toys to donate.
- Are there toys/gifts that are not accepted/distributed?
Toys for Tots prefer not to accept realistic looking weapons and gifts with food. If donated, such items will NOT BE DISTRBUTED.
Please drop off any donations before Thanksgiving. Thank you. If you have questions, please feel free to call Susan at 207-749-3033
The Durham Fire Department is also collecting independent from us, but as a joint giving effort.
