🤗Our FAVORITE day is right around the corner, the 2025 Shop with a Cop—and we need YOUR help to make it happen! 🎅🏼🌟

This program gives local kids a Christmas they’ll never forget – and even more importantly, it creates moments of connection, hope, and trust with the officers who serve our city. Those smiles and that excitement never get old! 🎄🤩

👮🏼‍♂️How It Works:
📌Children are nominated through schools
📌Each child is paired with an officer/deputy or trooper
📌Together, they shop, enjoy treats, and celebrate the season of giving

🚨Why It Matters:
For many families, the holidays can be tough. This program meets real needs and creates lasting memories—reminding kids that their community cares. Want to help out???
