Saturday, December 14, was a heartwarming day for North Dakota communities as First Responders from across the state united for the annual Toy and Food Drive. Held in Bismarck, Mandan, Jamestown, Fargo, and Williston, the event brought together agencies such as the Williams County Sheriff’s Office, NDBCI, ND Game & Fish, ND Parks & Recreation, NDDES, and several local police and sheriff’s departments, alongside the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.
The numbers are in, and the results are nothing short of remarkable! A total of 3,347 toys were donated, along with an overwhelming amount of nonperishable food items—so much that organizers couldn’t keep count. Thanks to the generosity of these communities, children and families in need can look forward to a brighter holiday season.
Here’s how the numbers stack up:
