The Jason D. Lewis Brookfield Memorial VFW Post joined in the effort undertaken by the Brookfield Police Department to aid needy children as part of the Annual Stuff a Cruiser Toy Drive.

Many Members of the Post, some of whom are also employed by the Brookfield PD, contributed toys and their time to the program spearheaded by the Post’s Connecticut Riders Motorcycle Group.

The Brookfield Police Department toy drive netted enough toys to fill a 24 foot UPS box truck which was delivered to the New Haven Children’s Hospital.

Police Officer Joe Kyek said since the program began, the contributions from the community have increased each year and that next year’s goal is to fill up a full 40 foot trailer.
