This program is designed to assist disadvantaged school-aged children with the acquisition of some basic needs. Families in need are offered an opportunity to shop for school supplies and holiday presents that they might not be able to afford. The program is underwritten by private donations (mostly from the PBA) and assistance by retail stores (Target and K-Mart). The organized shopping spree, utilizing the Police Explorers as mentors to the children, is frequently subsidized directly by officers overseeing the event.
If you would like additional information about the program please contact Lieutenant Susan Ralph
