NAPERVILLE, IL — The Naperville Police Department is getting ready to surprise dozens of kids with toys for Christmas, but they need your help. The Drive By Santa project is looking for unwrapped toys to deliver to sick children at Comer Children's Hospital. .

For the past 14 years, the Drive By Santa project has cruised neighborhoods in Naperville to bring Santa to visit children, hear their holiday wish lists, pose for pics, and collect toys for kids who are in the hospital.

To donate an item to be part of the haul that gets delivered to the kids at Comer Children's Hospital, mark it "Attn: Sgt. Krakow" and drop it off in the lobby of the Aurora Police Department at 1350 Aurora Ave. You can click the link to check out a gift wish list for the kids at Comer.
