Santa Express 2020

Santa Express to Collect Food, Clothing, and Toys for Families in Need

Even with the recovery of the economy, there is still a need for support of local food banks and charities, and The Salvation Army is no different. In 2019, The Salvation Army and Santa Express collected nearly 3,000 lbs. of food plus much needed clothing and toys to help those in need here in Bend. Anything and everything helps, even if it’s one can of food or a small toy that donation will go a long ways to providing a good dinner and a nice gift on Christmas and a smile on a child’s face Christmas morning. The Salvation Army would like to express the need for gifts to be given to teenage age kids as well. Please join the Bend Fire Department in supporting our community! 2020 has brought more community need this year and we’re asking for your help and support.

Along with so many things this year, Santa Express 2020 will be slightly different. We’ve canceled the neighborhood drive through’s due to COVID but we’re still having the drop off locations and some local pickups. Drop off non-perishable foods, new toys or clothing at any of these locations. Boxes will be in place until Friday December 18, 2020:

  • Bend Fire & Rescue Fire Stations – blue recycling bins will be at each system for touchless drop off service
    • West Fire Station – 1212 SW Simpson Ave
    • East Fire Station – 62420 Hamby Rd
