Dear Friends:

Thank you for visiting the "Cops for Kids Toy Drive"!

Please help the Hayward Police Department carry on the Cops for Kids Toy Drive tradition started over 20 years ago and make the holidays brighter for less fortunate families in Hayward.

For years Hayward Police Employees, their families, City of Hayward employees, community volunteers and business have donated their time and/or unwrapped gifts or money to buy toys for needy Hayward children, infant to 18 years old.

This year the Gift Give Away, for up to 80 Hayward families will take place on December 17, 2011 at 10:00 A.M. at the Hayward Police Department. Will will however, collect donations year long to prepare for the Toy Drive the following year.

If you would prefer to donate a gift, you can do so at several business locations Downtown Hayward, or at the City of Hayward Police Department located at 300 West Winton Avenue. Please, no toy guns/weapons please.

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support the City of Hayward Police Department fundraising efforts.  Your donation is tax deductable.

This couldn’t happen year after year without the ongoing support from all of you. Thank you in advance for bringing a smile to a lot of little Hayward faces.

Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
