About this event
The Ventura County Harbor Department and Harbor & Beach Community Alliance (HBCA) are teaming up to spread holiday cheer this season by hosting the 7th Annual Holiday Food & Toy Drive from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, December 5, 2026, at the Harbor Landing parking lot off Harbor Boulevard. The Holiday Food & Toy Drive will benefit Food Share of Ventura County and Toys for Tots , a charitable program of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve that helps bring the joy of Christmas to children in need by distributing new toys during the holiday season.
On the day of the event, donations will be accepted at the Harbor Landing parking lot, located at the intersection of Channel Islands Boulevard and Harbor Boulevard. Volunteers will be on hand to safely collect donations and ensure food and toys are delivered to Food Share of Ventura County and Toys for Tots. The goal is to raise a “boat load” of food and toys to help local families during the holidays.

However, all non-perishable food items are welcome.
Those wishing to donate toys are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped toys and sports equipment. Toy donations will benefit Toys for Tots and help bring holiday smiles to children throughout the community.
