SRPD News Release:
Thank you, Santa Rosa, for your overwhelming support of the SRPD Holiday Toy Drive!
The Santa Rosa Police Department is thrilled to announce the incredible success of our 3rd Annual Holiday Toy Drive! Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our community, hundreds of new toys and wrapping supplies were collected to bring joy to local children this holiday season.
Because of your kindness, Catholic Charities of Santa Rosa not only received enough toys to fulfill their needs, but we were also able to extend support to LifeSteps USA, an organization dedicated to providing housing and supportive services to families and individuals in need.
This tradition began three years ago when Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu Santa Rosa inspired SRPD to launch the toy drive. They hold their own toy drive each year and donate the toys to SRPD and SRFD to distribute within the community. Now, we partner with Gracie Barra to collect hundreds of toys for local nonprofits. We also want to give a huge shout-out to Santa Rosa Moose Lodge #458 and Brejle & Race for hosting their own internal toy drives to support our mission.
Your generosity truly makes a difference. Thank you for helping us spread holiday cheer and hope throughout our community!
