The REACH Foundation presents Shop with A Cop

On December 18, 2013, The REACH Foundation is proud to introduce its newest program, “Shop with a Cop”. This one-on-one experience is designed to have uniformed officers spend a day with underprivileged children while socializing, shopping, and providing guidance during the holiday season. The children will shop for their family as well as a children’s organization from the community where the police officer serves. This unique shopping experience for the children is an opportunity that deters them for choosing a life of crime or violence. The participating children are identified by schools, youth organizations, and social services agencies.
 
On the day of the event, uniformed officers volunteer their time to be with the children for a meet and greet/preparty at The Hawthorne Inn. After meeting the officers, the children will participate in a law enforcement procession and proceed to Target for shopping with their “Partner for the Day”.
 
A huge thank you to all of our amazing sponsors! You are helping to change the lives of CT children! We are still accepting donation as well! DONATE TODAY at www.thereachfoundation.org
 
Hosted By Target in Newington
