Grove City Police Launch Urgent “Cram the Cruiser” Toy Drive

URGENT UPDATE: The Grove City Police have just announced their 11th Annual “Cram the Cruiser” Holiday Toy Drive, set to take place on December 7, 2023, from 1-4 p.m. at the Grove City United Methodist Church located at 2684 Columbus Street. This event is a critical opportunity for the community to bring joy to underprivileged children in Franklin County.

This year’s toy drive aims to support kids under the care of Franklin County Children Services, ensuring that no child feels overlooked during the holiday season. The Grove City Police are calling on residents to contribute unwrapped toys suitable for children and young teens, fostering a spirit of generosity and community support.

As the holiday season approaches, the police department emphasizes the importance of giving back. “Join us in continuing the tradition of bringing added joy to children during the holidays,” the department stated in a recent social media post. The excitement builds as community members prepare to fill the cruiser with gifts.

Donors can participate safely by driving through the church’s location to drop off their contributions. This initiative is more than just a toy drive; it’s a vital lifeline of hope for those who may face a challenging holiday season.
