Franklin County Engineer’s Office drops off $8,000 worth of toys to children and families
COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — The Franklin County Engineer’s Office on Tuesday dropped off $8,000 worth of toys — an entire dump truck load — to children and families staying at the Ronald McDonald House.
“Having some extra Christmas gifts provides a little extra holiday magic, especially when the parents are already probably going through difficult times,” said Sarah Grace Smith with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio.
“Put a smile on a kid’s face during this tough time for them,” said Matt Balster with the Franklin County Engineer’s Office.
The donation is part of Operation Santa’s Sleigh, where first responders visit children all over Ohio, turning on the lights on fire trucks, police cars and more to light the way for Santa and his crew.

Dodrill thanked his office's relationship with the Ohio County Engineers Association, which helped advocate for this project, resulting in federal funds banked for this upcoming project.
