The South Londonderry Township Police Department is continuing with the community help effort, "Operation Fill a Cruiser." This Fall 2018, marks our 5th year for this program. Starting in November, Officers will be at several locations accepting unwrapped Christmas gifts and non-perishable food items to be distributed to area children and families in need.
Off-duty South Londonderry Officers will be stationed at the listed locations and will collect donated gifts/food from the Community. In addition to needs known to the Officers, we will be working in cooperation with area Churches. We are hoping to help the community, help their neighbors. The gifts and proceeds generated from the donations will be distributed throughout the Palmyra, Annville, and Lebanon Communities. We are very pleased to say that through the communities effort and generosity, we were able to help many children and families.

Donated Toys:
Toys must be brand new and unwrapped (in their original packaging). Gift cards are also accepted. Once collected, toys will not be returned. Officers at the collection sites may turn away a toy if it is deemed unsafe or not suitable. In the event more toys are collected above and beyond what is needed, they will either be retained for future distribution or may be donated to a partner organization for distribution.
Food Items:
Food must be factory packaged and non-perishable. Officers at the collections sites may turn away food items that do not meet criteria.

Make sure to check back to find out when and where we will be. If you wish to make a donation but cannot make it to one of the locations, you can contact the Police Department to schedule a drop off. Additional drop off sites will be announced in the future. If you would like to privately donate toward a specific need, please contact us at police.slpd@gmail.com. The Officers have no desire to take away from anyone's normal giving to other places or organizations, but hope you will think about adding this to your list. Thanks in advance for your consideration in giving a gift this season and helping us to 'Fill a cruiser.'
