TRUCKEE

With the holiday season just around the corner, Truckee Community Cares (TCC) is kicking off its 2025 holiday giving campaign, a community-wide effort to come together in support of local families, seniors, and individuals in need.

Toy and coat donation bins will be placed around town beginning the third week of November through Dec. 11, and financial donations are already being accepted at truckeecommunitycares.com.

TCC is an all-volunteer nonprofit that serves as an umbrella organization. Staff identifies those in need, raises essential funds, and collaborates closely with other community groups such as Soroptimist International of Truckee Donner, Tahoe Church, and Toys For Tots.

Recipients of the food drive are now able to purchase what they really want for their family holiday meal instead of receiving a box of dry/canned goods. Big or small donations for the food drive are greatly appreciated. Please submit contributions via online or by mail. 

Check the TCC website for updates on the list of drop-off locations. Much-needed donations include gently worn adult and kids’ jackets, plus new toys and teen gifts.
