Join ABC7’s annual Spark of Love Toy Drive in partnership with San Bernardino County Fire Department and Children’s Fund!
Drop off new, unwrapped toys for kids and teens in need across the Inland Empire at local fire stations.
Toys support nonprofits serving underserved families in areas like San Bernardino, Fontana, Hesperia, and more—no direct distribution to individuals.
The drive culminates in joyful holiday distribution events starting mid-December, with volunteer spots available for families to help sort, wrap, and deliver toys. It’s hands-on philanthropy that ties perfectly into holiday service learning for afterschoolers, teaching empathy and community impact.
Donation Guidelines: New, unwrapped toys for ages 0–18 (dolls, games, books, sports gear—avoid weapons or fragile items).
For Nonprofits: Submit toy request forms (including 501(c)3 verification and accountability Excel) by November 30, 2025, to COG@childrensfund.org.
Families: Call 2-1-1 for local resources or volunteer inquiries—nonprofit staff can’t volunteer, but community members can!
