What is the holiday drive? MVFD and ToFF work with our schools in the area to help our local kids get items they need to have a happier holiday. Last year we helped 83 local children!!
The “giving trees” will be at the firehouse and Dutch Corner. The ornaments will be hung with care on November 18th.
How’s it work? You pick up an ornament (or a few), purchase the items, and return them unwrapped WITH the code on the ornament to the firehouse by December 1st.
For example, if your ornament says medium blue shirt, you may purchase just one shirt or multiple shirts. It’s up to you!
We also will be posting online ornaments to be “adopted”: HOW ONLINE ORNAMENTS WORK: 1. We will post “ornaments” online that you can claim. 2. Once you say you will purchase the item it is yours and will be removed from our list. 3. You purchase the item(s) and drop it off, unwrapped, at MVFD firehouse. YOU MUST INCLUDE THE CODE THAT IS GIVEN WITH YOUR ITEM(S). Without the code we will not know which child it is meant for. You can write the code on a piece of paper and add it in the bag with the item(s). 5. All items need to be dropped off at the firehouse by Dec 1st, 3209 Main St., Manchester.
THANK YOU!!! This event has been a success for the past 19 years thanks to our generous community and we could not do it without your help. Let’s make year 20 the best yet!! |
