Reading Firefighters Raise Over $4500 for Salvation Army Toy Drive
Reading, PA - In December, Reading firefighters finished their 8th annual toy drive, raising more than $4,500. The annual event started with a charity t-shirt sale through the help of Weikel's Sportswear. Additional donations were obtained through several local businesses and clubs. Toys were purchased through a Target store, and later used to fill a fire truck during a breakfast held at Trooper Thorns Irish Pub. All toys were donated to the Reading Salvation Army.
The Aston Beechwood Fire Department is located in Delaware County, PA.
