Fire Department Begins Annual Aerial's House Toy Collection

Toys and new or gently used coats can be donated at multiple locations

The Forsyth County Fire Department is asking for residents' help in making the holiday season brighter for children in need with the 23rd annual Aerial's House toy collection.

The following items for local children in need (between newborn and 18 years old) can be dropped off at any Forsyth County fire station, the Fire Department Headquarters (3520 Settingdown Road) or any of the Forsyth County Public Libraries beginning Nov. 10 through Dec. 7:

  • New, unwrapped toys
  • New or gently used coats, for children or adults (please pre-clean)

In December, donations for Aerial's House may also be dropped off inside the lobby of the Forsyth County Administration Building (110 E. Main St.) underneath the lobby Christmas tree.

"The Fire Department looks forward to this initiative every year," said Forsyth County Fire Chief Barry Head. "We appreciate the community's support as we work together to bring joy to families all over the county."

In 2024, over 8,000 toys were collected during the drive, helping to provide a brighter Christmas for nearly 2,300 Forsyth County children. In addition, over 225 coats were collected and distributed. The initiative gets its name from a piece of equipment which is used by the Fire Department, known as an aerial ladder truck.

To receive information regarding the distribution of toys collected through Aerial's House, call The Place of Forsyth County at (770) 887-1098.
