Shop with a Cop

For over 30 years the "Shop with a Cop" program has helped make a happier Christmas for Columbus kids. The Fraternal Order of Police program, in which uniformed police officers take local kids shopping for clothing and toys, will serve about 150 kids this year.

Shop with a Cop is funded by Wal-Mart and the Earl Brown FOP Lodge, thru donations and fundraisers such as 4-H Fair Parking. 100% of your donation to Shop with a Cop goes directly to local kids and makes for a brighter holiday season. Each $150 allows us to help another child have a great Christmas.

To donate:

• Make checks payable to "Shop with a Cop"
• Visit the Columbus Police Department, 123 Washington Street

• Give your donation to any uniform police officer
• Mail your donation to Lt. Alan Trisler, c/o Columbus Police Dept., 123 Washington St., Columbus, IN 47201
