Loudoun Fire Stations Accepting Toy Donations Countywide

LOUDOUN COUNTY, VA — Loudoun County Fire and Rescue stations across the county will be accepting donations of new, unwrapped toys during the 69th annual Toys for Tots Campaign this holiday season, according to a Loudoun County Fire and Rescue announcement.

“The department is proud to once again participate in this wonderful program,” states Fire Chief W. Keith Brower, Jr. “Your generosity will help put smiles on the faces of many children this holiday season.”

Sponsored by the United Stated Marine Corps Reserve, The Toys for Tots Campaign began in 1947 when a group of U.S. Marine Reservists collected and distributed 5,000 toys to needy children in the Los Angeles area at Christmas. In 2013, Marines collected and distributed over 16.8 million toys to children who might not have otherwise experienced the magic of the Christmas holiday season.

Please note that toys resembling weapons or toys that could potentially be used as a weapon (i.e. guns, knives, swords, etc.) will not be accepted.

Toys will be accepted 6 a.m to 6 p.m. through Wednesday, Dec. 14 at the following Fire Stations:
