12 Dec 2024 NYPD Sleigh Ride
With the holiday season upon us, there is excitement for one of the NYPD’s most joyful traditions—the annual NYPD Sleigh Ride. This heartwarming event is all about spreading holiday cheer, delivering toys, and bringing communities together. Each year, NYPD officers take to the streets in festive style, visiting neighborhoods across all five boroughs to hand out toys to children and share moments of celebration. For many young New Yorkers, it’s a magical and unforgettable experience—and for the New York City Police Foundation, it’s a meaningful opportunity to support the NYPD’s efforts to strengthen community ties in a fun, impactful way.
The Sleigh Ride isn’t just about giving gifts—it’s about building relationships. When officers show up with toys, laughter, and holiday spirit, they create positive connections that last well beyond the season. These interactions help foster trust, goodwill, and a shared sense of community between the NYPD and the people they serve.
We are proud to help sponsor this incredible event and continue fulfilling our mission of Building A Safer City Together. Moments like the NYPD Sleigh Ride remind us that safety and community go hand in hand—and that joy, generosity, and human connection are powerful tools in strengthening our city. Thank you to everyone who helps make this event possible, including the officers, volunteers, and supporters who bring smiles to the faces of countless children across New York.
