Fair Lawn PBA Collecting Toys For Needy Kids

FAIR LAWN, NJ – Fair Lawn PBA Local #67, along with Fair Lawn Police Department, have joined forces with other PBAs across the county to collect new, unwrapped toys to be given to less than fortunate children this holiday season.

Gifts can be dropped off at Fair Lawn Police Department, 8-01 Fair Lawn Avenue or the Radburn Exxon, 22-20 Fair Lawn Avenue, through Dec. 18.

Over the years, locals have given thousands of toys and monetary donations to help ensure a bright and merry holiday for needy families, he said.

"Residents and businesses are very generous in Fair Lawn," Fair Lawn Police Officer Michael O'Brien, toy drive committee chair, said. "By working together, I know that we can exceed last year's amount of toys and bring even more smiles to kids in need.”

O’Brien also praised the generosity of Dan Sewall, owner of Radburn Exxon, for setting up a toy drop every year and providing a truck and trailer for all the gifts collected.

“Danny donated his own time and funds to purchase items needed to bring attention to the drive and has been invaluable,” he said.

Checks can also be written to Fair Lawn PBA Local #67 and sent to: P.O. Box 276, Fair Lawn, NJ, 07410. The PBA asks that “2019 Toy Drive” be written in the check’s memo section.
