The Richmond Police Department has begun its annual Christmas food drive, with a goal of feeding 700 very low income families again this year. The all-volunteer effort is being joined by the Richmond Fire Department, which will provide toys again this year.

We need to purchase staple food and turkeys to supplement donations received throughout the year and so far this year we have not yet reached our goal of $8,000.00.

Tax-deductible contributions should be made out to:

 

YMCA/Richmond P.D. Christmas Fund

263 South 20th Street

Richmond, CA 94804

Anyone or any organization who would like to have a donation barrel can should call Cindy Haden (510) 965-0468 and leave a message or call Duane Chapman at (510) 620-6886.
