Spaghetti Anyone?

Yesterday was a shopping day for the children in the Kids 'N Cops program in Eau Claire, WI. The program was started in 2010 and allows children to buy Christmas toys they would not otherwise be able to purchase.

The money for the shopping spree was raised by selling tickets to a spaghetti dinner to members of the community. Cops "...traded their cuffs and radios for gloves and tongs to serve hundreds of meals." 

Check around your community to see if they have programs to benefit children during this time of year. If none are present, consider uniting forces with a community organization and make this Christmas season a little bit more special for the children in your area.
