For immediate release

CANTON — Chief Charles Doody is pleased to share that the Canton Fire Department is collecting supplies for domestic violence survivors in recognition of Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

Canton Fire is partnering with DOVE (Domestic Violence Ended), a nonprofit serving Norfolk County and the greater South Shore, to hold a donation drive throughout the month of October. Wishlist items for the drive include non-perishable food items, hygiene and household products, bedding, baby care products and gift cards. 

Donations can be dropped off in the drop box located in the lobby of the Canton Fire Department headquarters, 99 Revere St.

“We are proud to partner with DOVE for this donation drive to both collect supplies and raise awareness during Domestic Violence Awareness Month,” Chief Doody said. “The donations we collect over the course of the month will provide important items for domestic violence survivors, and we encourage our residents to donate items if they are able.”

Donations are also being collected at the Canton Police Department at 1492 Washington St., as well as in Quincy, Hingham, Weymouth, Braintree and Milton.
