GREAT NEWS. Santa is coming to our Holiday Party. A representative from the SantaCop – First Responder Elves program will be there to collect UNWRAPPED toys, for both boys & girls 8 to 12 years. Gift cards at Target, or wherever, $20 value are fantastic.If you bring something for the Santa Cop program, or raffle gift, you will receive 2 FREE raffle tickets per PERSON.
The SantaCop – First Responder Elves program is very much alive and well in our 26th year.
Since the inception of SantaCop in 2000, the program has evolved and grown. The initial participants of International Footprint Association (IFA Chapter 15), San Rafael Police Association and San Rafael Firefighters Association have been joined by many more of our local heroes.
Our partners include Marinwood FD, Kentfield FD, Central Marin Fire (Larkspur / Corte Madera), Tiburon FD as well as Marin Corps Salvation Army and US Coast Guard Pacific Strike Team. Last year we teamed with Marin County Sheriff Deputies and Marin County Fire Department, Pt Reyes Station, to bring the magic of the season to children in west Marin.
Our red SantaCop collection barrels will be ready for donations at all participating fire stations and select retail location as of November 6th. We ask for new, unwrapped toys for all ages (infants to 12years). We very much need treasures for both boys & girls ages 8 to 12. Gift cards are always appreciated.
MERRY CHRISTMAS to all………
