And the winners are…. @clackamasfire!! Our Police vs. Fire Red Kettle Challenge brought out the very best of Happy Valley. Clackamas Fire may have taken home the bragging rights this year and raised a little bit more money, but the true victory was the incredible sense of community, camaraderie, and generosity shared by everyone who stopped by.
This event was a powerful reminder that public safety is about more than responding to emergencies it’s about caring deeply for our community. Both Clackamas Fire and the Happy Valley Police Department work every day to keep residents safe, and yesterday they stood shoulder to shoulder with neighbors to support families in need during the holidays. Every dollar collected will stay right here in Happy Valley, providing meals, shelter, and hope to local families.
Most of all, a huge and sincere thank you to everyone who donated, cheered, shared a smile, or took a moment to stop by. Your kindness and generosity are what make this community so special.
