Laguna Beach Fire Department Participating in Spark of Love Campaign

Laguna Beach, CA – The Laguna Beach Fire Department, in partnership with Southern California Firefighters and ABC7, is again taking part in the annual ‘Spark of Love’ Toy Drive. The campaign collects new, unwrapped toys and sports equipment for underserved children and teens in Orange, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Ventura and Riverside counties. Toys collected in the respective counties are distributed locally.

This year marks the 28th anniversary of the Firefighters’ ‘Spark of Love’ campaign, which will run through Thursday, December 24th. The Laguna Beach Fire Department has been involved since the program’s inception and each fire station will serve as drop-off sites for new, unwrapped toys or sports equipment.

Drop off your new, unwrapped toys or sports equipment to any of Laguna Beach’s four fire stations. Please help us stay safe by following COVID-19 safety recommendations, including remembering to wear a mask when dropping off your toy donation, ringing the Fire Station doorbell and placing the unwrapped gift in the designated Spark of Love "Drop Box" which will be placed outside each Laguna Beach Fire Station.

Any new unwrapped toy must be in their original packaging or box. Sports equipment (balls/tennis racquets, baseball bats) is not required to have a box or package. We cannot distribute clothing, personal care items, blankets etc.

Drop off toys or sports items at these four Laguna Beach Fire Stations: 

1. Fire Station 1: 501 Forest Avenue
2. Fire Station 2: 285 Agate Street
3. Fire Station 3: 2900 Alta Laguna Blvd. 
4. Fire Station 4: 31646 2nd Avenue
