Applications open for Franklin County Fire Department toy drive

The joy and festivity of the holiday season, more often than not, is contrasted with a time of sorrow and despair for others. As some families struggle, groups such as the Franklin County Fire Department (FCFD) are receptive to giving families and their children a Christmas to remember. Applications for the department’s toy drive remain open until Nov. 20 for families seeking assistance, and are open for babies to kids age 12. Applications for the toy drive can be made online at www.fcfdtoydrive.org “It’s very rewarding to do this, and to be involved with this and to know that all these children are gonna get toys or something (different) for Christmas,” stated Dawn McDonald, FCFD program coordinator and administrative assistant.
