The 2018 Alameda Firefighters Toy Program (AFTP) is a partnership of the Alameda Collaborative for Children, Youth, and their Families (ACCYF), Alameda Food Bank, Alameda Red Cross Youth, Alameda Firefighters, and other community organizations. The Program will ensure that all low-income Alameda families who sign up at the Alameda Food Bank receive age-appropriate holiday toys for their children aged 0-12 and gift cards for youth aged 13-17.
This year we are especially in need of crafts, sports balls, and other items for our older children. Cash donations are also needed to purchase the $25 gift cards given to youth aged 13-17. Checks made out to Alameda Firefighters Toy Program (AFTP) can be mailed to P.O. Box 6523, Alameda, CA 94501. Your donation is tax-deductible.
Please help us by dropping off new, unwrapped toys at one of the Alameda Firefighters Toy Program locations below. The final pickup for these sites will be Wednesday, December 19, 2018.
