Richmond RCMP had record-breaking success with its 10th Annual Toy Drive, hosted on Nov. 23 at Lansdowne Centre. Community generosity reached new heights, with $33,419 raised and 2.5 tonnes of toys donated, in support of the Richmond Christmas Fund, another program of Richmond Cares, Richmond Gives.
Events included VIP ball hockey games featuring the Richmond Sockeyes, RCMP officers, and community leaders, family-friendly activities, including photos with Santa and mini donuts for donors, and complimentary tickets to a Richmond Sockeyes game for all participants.
“The community’s support has been incredible. Every donation will brighten a family’s holiday season, making this milestone year unforgettable,” said Superintendent Julie Drotar, Senior Operations Officer.
The Richmond RCMP Toy Drive has become a cherished tradition, ensuring all families in Richmond have a reason to smile this holiday season.
