Spark Of Love Toy Donations Still Needed In Laguna Beach: 2021

LAGUNA BEACH, CA — Toys for Laguna Beach Fire Department's Spark of Love toy drive are being collected through Christmas Eve and can be dropped off at any Laguna Beach fire station, they say.

This is the 29th anniversary of the toy drive that brings joy to area children every year, the city said in a recent announcement.

"The Spark of Love Toy Drive originally began in 1993 as a partnership between KABC-7 and Firefighters from the Counties of Orange, Riverside, Los Angeles, San Bernadino and Ventura," the city said in a recent release. "There are many other worthwhile toy drives, however, the Spark of Love is the only one created and operated by your local Firefighters."
