Every December, members of the Apple Valley Police Department host a “Shop with a Cop” event. Generous donations are given by businesses such as Target and Walmart for this very worthy cause. In addition, other businesses and community members donate money to help needy families experience a better holiday season. Officers volunteer their time to serve as hosts to these families as they shop for Christmas presents. Quite often, the recipients buy essential goods like bedding, personal care products, and warm outfits. Our officers truly enjoy the opportunity to help these families out and it’s a very rewarding experience to shop with them. We encourage all members of our community to remember those in need this December and help make their holiday season a little brighter.
