UPDATE: The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department (CMPD) has just launched its annual Explorers Christmas Project, urgently calling for toy donations to support children in need this holiday season.
This year, CMPD is inviting the Charlotte-Mecklenburg community to donate new, unwrapped toys for children up to 14 years old. The department’s announcement comes as families face challenges during the festive season, making this initiative vital for spreading holiday cheer.
Residents can drop off donations at any CMPD division office or the Law Enforcement Center before the deadline of December 21. This effort aims to ensure that every child experiences the joy of receiving a gift during the holidays.
In a heartfelt message on social media, CMPD emphasized the importance of community support, stating, “Every year our CMPD Explorers Christmas Project helps bring holiday cheer to families in need.” This initiative has become a cornerstone of giving in the community, fostering a sense of unity among residents.
As temperatures drop, the need for warmth and kindness increases. CMPD urges everyone to contribute, saying, “Help us spread joy to families in need this holiday season!” Your participation can make a significant impact on the lives of those navigating hardships.
This initiative not only highlights the spirit of giving but also showcases the community’s strength in coming together to support one another. The CMPD Explorers Christmas Project has a proven track record of brightening the holidays for many families, and this year is no different.
With just a few weeks left until the holiday deadline, community members are encouraged to act quickly. Each toy donated could bring a smile to a child’s face, reminding all of us of the power of generosity.
For more information on how to donate or get involved, residents can visit the CMPD’s official social media pages or contact their local division office. Together, let’s make this holiday season memorable for every child in Charlotte-Mecklenburg.
