Sheriff's Toy Project
At the Sheriff's Toy Project, we believe no child should be without a toy, especially on Christmas morning. Christmas is almost here and we are seeking donations of new unwrapped toys in their original packaging. The toys donated will go to needy families in the Fair Oaks/Orangevale/Gold River area. We are preparing for an unprecedented number of families in need this year and respectfully request your kind donation to assist the Sheriff's Toy Project in helping a less fortunate child celebrate Christmas this year. This year, the Fair Oaks/Orangevale/Gold River Sheriff Service Center is delivering toys and food baskets on December 16th. We will be picking up donated toys on Monday, December 14th from all the barrel locations. The Orangevale Chamber of Commerce is holding a barrel in the lobby located at 9267 Greenback Lane Ste B-91.
