The Hawaiʻi County Police Department’s first annual Holiday Toy Drive, held at the Kona Walmart on December 20, resulted in the donation of more than 1,000 toys, which were distributed to the Salvation Army and the Boys & Girls Club. These donations made sure 1,000 keiki across West Hawaiʻi received holiday gifts this Christmas.

Following the event, HPD offered a special mahalo to Kona Walmart, the Food Basket, Hawai‘i Island’s Food Bank,  Bill and Justin Armijo of Trans World Metals, Jadalyn Valentin and volunteers from Hawaiʻi Technology Academy, and the pageant queens from the Miss Kona Coffee Organization, Miss Hawaiʻi Island Organization, and Miss Hawaiʻi Island USA Pageant.
