General Operating Fund
The year-round fund that keeps Toledo Strong running — supplies, insurance, and everything behind the scenes that makes the events possible.
A Day of Thanks
Every January 26, Toledo Strong brings our community together to honor fallen Toledo firefighters Stephen Machcinski and James Dickman, who made the ultimate sacrifice on January 26, 2014. Through this community-driven effort, local businesses, families, and volunteers adopt fire stations throughout the Toledo region, providing breakfast treats in the morning and dinner in the evening. Since 2015, every year, our community steps up to show appreciation for those who protect and serve us. In 2026, together we fed more than 300 firefighters at 43 stations!
Feed the Families
This Christmas, Toledo Strong is launching a new community-driven initiative called Feed the Families, bringing our community together to help local families who could use a little extra support during the holiday season. Through the generosity of local businesses, donors, and volunteers, we hope to provide complete Christmas dinners to families nominated by friends, neighbors, and community members. Our goal is simple: bring more than just a meal to the table. We want to deliver kindness, hope, and a reminder that no family should feel forgotten during the holidays. It’s neighbors helping neighbors, and that’s what Toledo Strong is all about.
$300 raised so far toward this year’s dinners.
