FDNY and NYPD bring Santa and gifts to Ronald McDonald House in NYC on Pix 11

 

MANHATTAN, N.Y. (PIX11) – New York’s Bravest and Finest joined forces on Wednesday to ensure Santa made an appearance and brought toys to the Ronald McDonald House in New York.  

A firefighter from FDNY Engine 44 dressed as Santa and waved to the kids who could not come down from their rooms.  

“I’ve been Santa for three years,” said one of New York’s Bravest. “I love coming here to see the kids. It lights up their face, and their smiles light up mine. If I can give a little hope to these kids and their families, I will do what I can.

The NYPD’s 19th Precinct also stopped by to donate toys to the kids staying at the Ronald McDonald House New York.  

This is a long-standing tradition that has been going on with the Upper East Side firehouse for 25 years.
