Halton Regional Police Service Toys for Tots

On Thursday November 10th, 2011, the Halton Regional Police Service, in partnership with Canadian Tire, the Salvation Army, the Mandarin restaurant and Halton Honda, launched the annual Toys for Tots holiday fundraising drive. Toys for Tots spreads holiday joy by providing gifts to less fortunate families living in Halton Region.

The official kick-off event featured remarks by Halton Regional Police Service Deputy Chief Andrew Fletcher and program partners. Milton Mayor Gordon Krantz, hockey players and members of the Minor Oaks Hockey Association in Oakville (MOHA) and the Burlington Lions Optimist Minor Hockey Association (BLOMHA) were present. These two hockey associations collected $30,000.00 in last year’s Toys for Tots campaign and challenge others for 2011.

This year we are pleased to have as the Toys for Tots Honorary Chairperson, 11-yr-old student – Addison Holley. Addison is a Family Channel star in the show ‘Baxter’ and is also a guest star in an upcoming Disney movie. She has played Marta in the Mirvish Broadway tour of ‘The Sound of Music’ and was recently cast as the only child in the upcoming Broadway tour of the Tony-award winning ‘Warhorse’.
