Holiday On Duty 2022

Your Donation Could Make a Great Difference This Year!

During the Thanksgiving and Seasonal Holidays

We provide meals for Public Safety Personnel:

Montgomery County Police stationed in this Area

Wheaton Volunteer Rescue Squad

Kensington Volunteer Fire Department

Since 1999, the Wheaton & Kensington Chamber of Commerce has run Holiday on Duty, a program that collects money from the community and provides meals for Public Safety personnel during the holidays.

During these times, most eating establishments are closed in the Wheaton and Kensington area. Many public safety workers are handling various emergencies and may find it difficult to locate restaurants open for meals while on duty. For most of us, these are holidays. But not for those Public Safety personnel – they are on duty.

The Chamber urges everyone to donate to this program to say “Thank You” to those who work to protect us while we are celebrating the holidays with family and friends.
