Be a Part of Spark of Love

Every year, tens of thousands of children experience Christmas morning with no gifts to open. To bring smiles to these children, the firefighters in Moreno Valley, in cooperation with CAL FIRE/Riverside County Fire and KABC Channel 7, host a "Spark of Love Toy Drive." Residents wishing to be part of this special event are encouraged to drop off a new, unwrapped toy or sports equipment at any local fire station to support this worthwhile cause. With your support, children throughout Moreno Valley will receive a new toy this holiday season. Your donation to the "Spark of Love Toy Drive" will be accepted at any of the city's seven fire stations through Dec. 24: Fire Station #2 - 24935 Hemlock Avenue Fire Station #6 - 22250 Eucalyptus Avenue Fire Station #48 - 10511 Village Road Fire Station #58 - 28040 Eucalyptus Avenue Fire Station #65 - 15111 Indian Avenue Fire Station #91 - 16110 Lasselle Street Fire Station #99 - 13400 Morrison Street For eligibility requirements to receive toys for a child in need, please contact the Moreno Valley Community Assistance Program at 951-485-7792. For any other questions regarding the “Spark of Love Toy Drive” call 951-486-6780.
