The spirit of giving was in the air at Sherway Gardens as Toronto Police did their part to give back to their community.

Police from 22 Division said their annual Stuff the Bus drive to collect toys for the needy was a big success.

A TTC bus was parked outside of ToysRus, at 690 Evans Avenue, as residents stopped by to leave toys for needy area children.

A TTC bus decorated for the occasion.

“A huge thank you to everyone who came out to support a great cause for South Etobicoke,” officers said on social media. “Thank you to all that helped volunteer and to everyone who donated.”

The drive took place on December 10 at Sherway Gardens. The toys will be handed out to at risk children in the community.

TTC workers also held a successful Stuff the Bus campaign last month in front of Walmart at Sherway Gardens. All the toys in that drive went to the Hospital for Sick Children.
