Annual Stuff-A-Bus event provides toys to children in need
ANAHEIM – Santa Claus is coming to town in a bus and is looking to Orange County to help fill it with toys. The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) is teaming up with ABC7, Honda Center in Anaheim and the Anaheim Ducks to support the Spark of Love toy drive by stuffing a bus with toys.
The annual Stuff-A-Bus event will take place from 4:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., Friday, Dec. 19 at Honda Center in Anaheim. The public is encouraged to bring new, unwrapped toys and sporting equipment to the parking lot at Honda Center, 2695 E. Katella.
Toys collected will be distributed to children in the local community. Last year, two 60-foot, 22-ton OCTA articulated buses were filled with more than 7,500 toys.
“For those of us blessed to celebrate a plentiful holiday, this a great opportunity to spread the joy to those in need,” said OCTA Vice Chairman Peter Buffa. “By donating a single toy, you can bring some much needed cheer to an Orange County child.”
Garth Kemp of the ABC7 Morning News will be on-site to greet the public and broadcast live throughout the morning.
For 16 years, ABC7 and firefighters from Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties have come together to support the Spark of Love toy drive for the children in our communities.
