The outpouring of generosity from people who live in the City of Richmond is truly inspiring, says Chief Superintendent Dave Chauhan, Officer-in-charge of Richmond RCMP, It means so much to me, the officers who organize this event and our detachment as a whole, to know that our commitment and passion for such a worthy cause is shared by our community.

We are so fortunate that the donations for the Toy Drive continue to grow each year because so does the need within our community, says Ed Gavsie, President and CEO of Richmond Cares, Richmond Gives, We are so pleased to be able to continue to partner with the Richmond RCMP. After watching C/Supt Chauhan go into the dunk tank, I know just what lengths they are willing to go to make this event a success.

Those still wishing to make donations can do so until November 30th by visiting any of these toy drop locations:
