Today, the Toy Drive received a very generous donation from Steve Niles, owner of Gold Rush Water and Divide Septic. Mr. Niles shared his touching story with us of how this community rallied around his family in their critical time of need. He loves this community, is devoted to it, and absolutely felt it was so important to give back to those who gave so much to him. We all shared tears together, and cannot express enough how much we appreciate him, and every one of our amazing donors. This community is strong, and together we can do great things!

This past weekend we were overwhelmed with the outpouring of support for our 3rd annual toy drive. We have come so far and grown beyond any expectations.

The first year during fire prevention week, while giving a presentation a kindergarten student told us a story about how he had lost everything in a fire, his family was safe but they had no possessions. That day we decided that we would try to do something. The idea of the toy drive was born. That year with the support of the citizens of our communities we were able to present 19 children with an amazing Christmas.

The second year it grew to 127 children. Now this year we were projecting 150 children but it looks like we will actually surpass 200.

We hate to ask more of the community but we are in desperate need of the following toys

Legos (Star Wars/Marvel)
Art supplies for any age (drawing kits, crayons, coloring books)
Marvel action figures
Frozen dolls
Broncos T-shirt’s in boy sizes
LOL Dolls
Crafting kits
PJ Masks toys
Books for ages 1-12

We have collection points set up at the following locations.

Divide Fire Protection District
Northeast Teller County Fire District (NETCO)
Ute Pass Regional Health Services District
Florissant Fire Protection District
Mountain Communities Volunteer Fire Department
Cripple Creek Fire Department
Lake George Fire Protection District
