The Toy & Joy program is a local toy drive sponsored by the Vernonia Volunteer Fire Association & Ambulance Association, and supplies toys in our community during the holiday, to families with children ages 18 and under. These efforts bring joy to both givers and receivers during the season and throughout the year.

 

Applications for families in need can be found with toy donation barrels, and are now available at multiple businesses in the city of Vernonia. Applications can be returned to Santa’s mailbox, which is located at the Vernonia Fire Station. The application deadline is December 13, 2024.

 

Businesses have toy donation barrels available for folks who would like to donate new unwrapped toys. 

 

2024 Barrel Locations: R&S Market, Wauna, Black Iron Grill Coffee Shop, True Value, Chevron Mini Mart, Vernonia Health Clinic & the Vernonia Fire Department
