The Franklin Firefighters' 12th Annual Christmas Toy & Clothing Drive Is Underway!

New, Unwrapped Gifts and Monetary Donations Accepted Through Friday, December 6th

Franklin, TN – The Franklin Firefighters' 12th Annual Christmas Toy & Clothing Drive is underway!

The gift requests of more than 200 Williamson County children are adorning the holiday fire hydrant displays outside Franklin fire stations. Stop by to select a gift request card from one of the displays. Purchase the single item requested on the card. Return new, unwrapped gifts with the card attached to a fire station or Franklin Fire Headquarters by Friday, December 6th.

According to Franklin Fire Captain Clay Mackey, the Franklin Firefighters’ Toy & Clothing Drive has provided coats, clothes, shoes and toys to thousands of children since 2008. Mackey said the recipients are identified by representatives of the Williamson County Chapter of the Boys and Girls Club of Middle Tennessee, who work with other charities to prevent duplication of efforts.

Monetary donations are also accepted at all collection stations. Checks should be made payable to Franklin Firefighters Charities. All contributions are tax deductible.
