Charleston, WV – Families in Kanawha County who could use extra help this holiday season can pick up free Christmas toys for children, thanks to a community outreach effort by the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office.
According to the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office, there are still plenty of stuffed animals and toys available for families who may be struggling this Christmas. Sheriff Mike Crawford said the goal is to ensure that no child in Kanawha County goes without a present under the tree.
The toy giveaway is being held at the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office headquarters, located at 301 Virginia Street East in Charleston, and is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Families can stop by during those hours to receive toys while supplies last.
Officials emphasized that the process is designed to be simple and stress-free. No questions are asked, and there are no forms or paperwork required. Parents and guardians are welcome to bring their children with them and allow kids to pick out gifts for one another, creating a more personal and positive holiday experience.
The sheriff’s office is encouraging residents to share the information with neighbors, friends, or family members who may need assistance this season. The initiative is part of KCSO’s broader community support efforts during the holidays, particularly for households facing financial hardship.
Families are advised to arrive during regular business hours and note that toy availability is on a first-come, first-served basis.
