Malden Public Safety Police and Fire Dept. Toy Drive is underway

Bring new, unwrapped toys for distribution to Malden kids to the Malden Police Station (800 Eastern Ave.) or Central Fire Station (1 Sprague St.) until December 15

By Steve Freker

It is now officially Holiday Season, and in Malden that means it is time for one of the biggest and most heart-warming events of the year. The Annual Public Safety Toy Drive — hosted and sponsored by the Malden Police Department and Malden Fire Department — is now underway!

The men and women of Malden Police and Fire are now accepting donations of new, unwrapped toys at their respective central headquarters locations. The Malden Police Station is located at 800 Eastern Ave. (Route 60) and the Malden Central Fire Station is located at 1 Sprague St. (directly across Salem Street from Malden High School).

The Public Safety Toy Drive is supported once again this year by Malden Councillor-at-Large Craig Spadafora and Ward 8 Councillor Jadeane Sica. Every year, the organizers’ message is: “Together, we can make the holidays brighter for Malden families!” Hundreds of families are able to have a better holiday season with donations from generous Malden and area residents and businesses.

You can also donate directly through the Amazon Wish List:
