First Responders Children’s Foundation, in partnership with the Berrien County Sheriff’s Office and the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Southwest Michigan hosted a “Christmas Celebration” on December 13, 2022, at
the Fettig Youth Campus of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Southwest Michigan.
During this Christmas Celebration, members of the Berrien County Sheriff’s Office were able to provide over 200 children with a gift provided by the First Responders Children’s Foundation.
Berrien County Sheriff L. Paul Bailey stated “It is my honor and pleasure to partner with the First Responders Children’s Foundation to ensure that children in the Benton Harbor Michigan area receive a special gift this Christmas season.”
First Responders Children’s Foundation established “Toy Express” with generous donations of toys from Mattel, Spin Master, Servpro, CSX, Spin Master, Jazwares, Freedom, Good 360, Toys for Tots, and other businesses. In addition, generous individuals across the nation are helping bring holiday cheer to families by making donations of toys or money.
The First Responders Children’s Foundation’s Toy Express delivers more than 250,000 free holiday toys to first responder agencies and hospitals, which then distribute the holiday cheer to children of first responders and to children in first responder communities. This is the First Responders Children’s Foundation’s way of
saying “Happy Holidays” and “Thank You” to the heroic first responders who show up when we dial 9-1-1.
