HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, Fla. – The Hillsborough County Tax Collector’s Office is spreading holiday cheer by launching its annual donation drive to benefit Metropolitan Ministries.
Following a challenging year with recent storms impacting the community, the Tax Collector’s Office is calling on residents to embrace the spirit of giving and support families in need this Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Last year, the Tax Collector’s Office received the “Holiday Hero” award from Metropolitan Ministries for organizing one of the largest holiday donation drives in Tampa Bay. This year, they aim to surpass previous efforts and make an even greater impact.

“Our community has been through so much recently, and it’s more important than ever to come together and support one another,” said Nancy Millan, Hillsborough County Tax Collector. “We are incredibly grateful to receive the Holiday Hero award, but our work isn’t done. We’re asking everyone to join us in making this year’s holiday drives the most successful yet. Your generosity can truly change lives.”
The Tax Collector’s Office is accepting donations of non-perishable food items, gifts for children, and other essential items at all of its branch locations. These donations will go directly to Metropolitan Ministries to provide meals and support to those in need during the holiday season.
