About Spark of Love
ABC7 and Southern California Firefighters along with their sponsor Subaru, are celebrating their 32nd Anniversary of the Spark of Love Toy Drive.
Over the three decades, the Spark of Love Toy Drive has successfully collected more than ten million toys. The campaign collects new, unwrapped toys and sports equipment for underserved children and teens in Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Orange, Ventura and Riverside counties.
Toys collected in their respective counties are distributed locally.
ABC7 has partnered once again with the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program. This nationwide program is celebrating over 70 years of collecting and distributing toys. With firefighters and Marines standing side by side, this will be the biggest Spark of Love yet. Let’s make this year’s holiday season even brighter by delivering joy to those who need it most!
The C10 Club
The C/10 Club does an incredible job every year at the December Pomona Swap Meet, collecting toys for the Spark of Love Toy Drive. If you’re a fan of classic American trucks, be sure to check out the Club’s Instagram page to see their latest projects. Better yet, come meet them in person at the Toy Drive in Pomona on Sunday, December 8th! Join in and be part of this wonderful cause.
