Brentwood Fire & Rescue Now Collecting Toys for Holiday Season

Published on November 18, 2025

BRENTWOOD, Tenn. – The Brentwood Fire & Rescue Department is now collecting new and unwrapped toys for the GraceWorks Ministries Manger program until Friday, Dec. 5. Donations will be accepted at drop-off box locations between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. at any of the following locations:

• Any Brentwood Fire & Rescue Station
• The John P. Holt Brentwood Library
• Brentwood Service Center
• Brentwood Police Department
• Brentwood City Hall

Your donations will stock the shelves for hundreds of parents experiencing poverty or crisis. These parents will select gifts for their children during the second week of December. Your donations help provide them that cherished opportunity to “shop” for their own children AND bring joy to thousands of children on Christmas morning.

“This is our sixteenth year collecting for Toys for Tots,” Brentwood Fire and Rescue Lieutenant John Russ said. “Over the past decade, the community has provided thousands of children with a little bit of holiday cheer. We hope to continue that success this year and invite everyone to give anything they can.”
