49th Precinct Holiday Toy Giveaway at Starbucks on Eastchester Road.

 

Santa came to Starbucks on Eastchester Road with a police escort, as he went inside to give away a sled full of toys with his 'Elves for the Evening in Blue' from the 49th Precinct.

Deputy Inspector Natiw, his community outreach officers, local community leaders, and Assemblywoman Fernandez came to assist Santa in his mission to make a Merry Christmas for the children who came to Starbucks to enjoy some delicious cocoa, chocolate chip cookies (provided free by Starbucks), and receive a toy from one of Santa's Elves For the Evening in Blue. Joe Valdez the manager of the Starbucks store #29721 said that he was glad that his store could be a part of a wonderful evening for many children, and adults.
