Shop with a Cop
Calendar Date:
Saturday, December 10, 2016 - 2:00pm to 4:00pm
The Newberg-Dundee Police Department is pleased to announce the fifth annual Shop with a Cop program to take place Saturday, December 10, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. in the Fred Meyer Shopping Center. Established in Las Vegas in 1978, “Shop with a Cop” is now a national program. The program began as a way to not only provide a memorable experience and holiday gift for underprivileged children, but as a way to improve a child’s image of police officers, as they often only see law enforcement in stressful and uncertain circumstances.
This year’s event will be December 10, 2016 at Newberg Fred Meyer form 2:00- 4:00. If you would like to donate to the program or if you would like more information about the event, please contact Del Linck @ del.linck@newbergoregon.gov
We all benefit; especially the children! It is a heart-warming experience for everyone involved. The event will serve Newberg-Dundee children ages six through ten who are low-income, at-risk and/or medically challenged. Children are nominated by their school’s teachers and counselors.
Each child is paired with an officer and given a Fred Meyer gift card provided from donation to purchase Christmas gifts for their family. The child, with help of the officer gets to shop and select a special gift for their siblings and parents or caregiver. Each gift given by a child is carefully wrapped by volunteers as the children enjoy cookies and hot chocolate. Then, Fred Meyer surprises each child with a personally-selected gift at the end of their shopping trip.
Newberg Fred Meyer has been tremendous partner in this event every year. The store donates thousands of dollars-worth of merchandise and their employees volunteer their time and effort, not only during the event but also during fundraising efforts throughout the year. Local businesses and citizens alike donate money for the event. The officers and dispatchers for the police department also volunteer their time throughout the year with fundraising events. The police department feels fortunate to be a part of this wonderful event.
