Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station deputies have once again begun collecting toys as part of the Annual Holiday Toy Drive.

The partnership between AutoNation Chevrolet, KHTS AM 1220 and the Sheriff’s Station  kicks off with a night of music, fun and holiday spirit Wednesday, Dec. 7 from 4-7 p.m. at AutoNation Chevrolet.

One of the biggest advantages for those who give to the Sheriff’s Station Toy Drive is the person knows that all of the toys stay in the Santa Clarita Valley, officials said.

“We’re excited to come  out and see all the kids from all the different schools come and perform these wonderful holiday songs,” said Deputy Fanny Lapkin, who organizes the drive as the outreach coordinator for the Sheriff’s Station’s Crime Prevention Unit.

Deputies from Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station have been working with the community to collect and distribute toys and gifts to less fortunate children in our community for more than 20 years.

Autonation Chevrolet is located at 23649 Valencia Boulevard in Santa Clarita.

“If you would like to make a difference in the life of a child,” Lapkin said, “you can donate a new, unwrapped toy at the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s lobby anytime between now and December 21.”
