The club will hold a toy run Saturday to raise money and collect toys for the Toys From Santa program.
The recipients are approved by the Willie Estes Clearinghouse.
The Red Knights Motorcycle Club is comprised of firefighters who have motorcycles and enjoying riding their bikes to raise money for good causes.
Most of the club members are Gadsden firefighters, but there are some who are from other fire departments in Etowah County, O'Bryant said.
