Troutdale, OR – Families across East Multnomah County are encouraged to take part in this year’s Fill the Cruiser Toy Drive, now underway and running through December 12, 2025. The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO), along with the cities of Wood Village, Fairview, and Troutdale, is collecting new, unwrapped gifts for children ages 0–18 ahead of the holiday season.
According to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, donors can drop off toys, bikes, scooters, and helmets at two primary locations: Bandit’s Bar & Grill at 108 East Columbia River Hwy. in Troutdale or the Troutdale Sheriff’s Operation Center at 234 SE Kendall Court. Both sites will accept donations throughout the drive.
MCSO officials say community members will also have an opportunity to donate in person on November 29, 2025, at the Wood Village Kohl’s, Walmart, and Fred Meyer stores. Deputies and volunteers will be stationed outside each location from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to receive gifts directly from residents.
The Fill the Cruiser Toy Drive has become a well-established annual tradition supporting families in need across East County. Local leaders say the partnership with nearby cities continues to help expand the reach of the program, ensuring more children receive holiday gifts each year.
The Sheriff’s Office thanked residents for their ongoing generosity and encouraged early participation to help organizers plan for distribution efforts in mid-December.
Community Question: Will you be donating this year? If you plan to stop by one of the Nov. 29 locations, what store works best for you?
