SF Asian Peace Officers Foundation to host its first Christmas toy drive for low income children

(SAN FRANCISCO) The newly-founded San Francisco Asian Peace Officers Foundation (SFAPOF) will hold its first toy drive this Christmas to benefit the Asian children from the low income families.

Eddie Wu, Founder of the foundation, said they would distribute the toys to the children from the low income families citywide. New and unwrapped toys can be brought to three locations in the city. Cash donation is very welcome by sending an email to him at SFAPOF@gmail.com.

The toy drive has received support from different organizations. ACICEC hosted a joint fundraising dinner with the foundation last Saturday in Millbrae to raise funds for the toy drive.

Lily Lo, Co-Founder of BeChinatown, will work with Wu to purchase the toys and distribute them to the children in different neighborhoods. "If we receive the cash donation, we will purchase the toys in Chinatown to support the merchants in Chinatown as well," said Lo.

The donors can drop off the new and unwrapped toys at three locations: D & A Cafe on 407 Clement Street in Richmond District, Lam Hoa Thuah BBQ Restaurant on 2337 Irving Street in Sunset District, Northeast Community Federal Credit Union on 683 Clay Street in Chinatown
