2022 marks the 45th anniversary since the program started. The fire department has partnered with Kroger for food needs and Meijer for toys.
The fire department is accepting canned goods, non-perishable food items and new, unwrapped toys through Friday, Dec. 9. Donations may be dropped off at any of the Noblesville Fire Stations or at Noblesville City Hall, 16 South 10th St. Deliveries to the families will take place on Saturday, Dec. 17.
The fire department also is accepting monetary donations (checks are preferred – made payable to the NFD Hamilton County Community Foundation). Secure online donations may be made through the Central Indiana Community Foundation donor portal at cicf.org/giving/give-now/existing-fund/. If making an online donation, please type in “Noblesville Firefighters Fund” under the Fund Name section.
“For four and a half decades, the Noblesville Fire Department has had the honor of delivering food and toys on behalf of the generous citizens and businesses of Noblesville,” said Noblesville Fire Chief Matt Mitchell.
