Cabazon Sheriff's Office Delivers Toys to Local Youth in Transition Home

The following is a news release from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department:

On Dec. 22, a large number of toys were donated to the Cabazon Sheriff’s Station by the Arrowhead/Nestle Water Company.

Cabazon Station personnel identified needy children residing at the House of Decision, a transition home, in the Banning/Beaumont Pass Area. Deputy Greenwalt obtained the names of the children in advance and ensured the gifts were matched accordingly. Since the donated gifts were not wrapped, Cabazon Staff, including Deputy David Greenwalt, Office Assistant Charles Brogdon, Office Assistant Judy Reckard, and Senior Accountant Lois Carter, wrapped each of the gifts.

On Dec. 24, at about 10 a.m., Deputy Jacob Jenson, Deputy David Greenwalt, Community Service Officer Brandi Teets, Office Assistant Charles Brogdon, Sheriff’s Service Officer Cassandra Nunez and Sergeant John Shulda delivered the gifts to the children. The staff was met with smiles and exchanged hugs with children.

Deputies Michael Williams, Jacob Jenson and Constantine Ghilici took twelve gifts each to hand out randomly to children they come into contact with during their shift in the Cabazon Station patrol area. Deputy Greenwalt contacted specific families in the Cabazon area to give away additional gifts to families in need.

This mission of distributing the toys will continue on Christmas day, until all the gifts are given away.

The Cabazon Station would like to thank Arrowhead/Nestle Waters, Inc., for their generous donation and contributions to the community. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is proud to have collaborated with Arrowhead/Nestle Waters, Inc., in giving back to the citizens and community we serve.
