December 20, 2025 – Atlantic City Firefighters FMBA Local 8, working in conjunction with The Irish Pub, Tanger Outlets, and Boxx for Tots, concluded their annual Toys for Children campaign by distributing holiday gifts to more than 250 children from the Atlantic City community.


The event was graciously hosted by Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and featured cookies, hot chocolate, and a special visit from Santa Claus, creating a festive and memorable experience for children and their families. Funds for the campaign were raised during Black Friday weekend through the firefighters’ annual Fill the Boot initiative, with every dollar collected going directly toward the purchase of toys for local children.


Firefighters expressed gratitude to their community partners and the public for their continued generosity, noting that the success of the event allows the department to support and uplift Atlantic City families and build toward an even larger effort in the year ahead.
