Please join the URI Police on December 16th and 17th between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the North Kingstown Walmart, 1031 Ten Rod Road, North Kingstown, for their Stuff-A-Cruiser Holiday Toy Drive. Each day, several URI police officers and other public safety personnel will be at Walmart to accept donations of toys and essential goods.  Donations will be distributed to local charities and hospitals.

This year also marks the first collaboration involving Stuff-A-Cruiser and Rhody Outpost, URI’s basic needs food pantry, which assists students who are food insecure. The list of high-demand toys will be available outside Walmart on the days of the drive. In the meantime, Rhody Outpost has provided a list of food and toiletry items that will benefit the outpost and other charities. 

Those unable to make the two-day event can drop off donations at the  URI Police Department, open 24 hours a day and located on campus at 85 Briar Lane. Donations will be accepted at the Police Department from now until Dec. 17.
