Forty-eight children were able to pick out holiday gifts for themselves and their families during the 10th anniversary of the Kent Police Department’s Shop with a Cop.<\/p>\n

Officers, city jail corrections staff, the police explorers unit, police civilian staff and city human resources and legal staff participated in the early morning Dec. 9 event at Target on the East Hill.<\/p>\n

Funds are raised each year to help children shop for free at the store. A Kent nonprofit that works with youth and families partners with the police and refers children to the event.<\/p>\n

“Thank you to Target for all the things you did to help us be successful,” Kent Police said in a statement. “A huge thank you to everyone who donated their money and time to make this year so successful.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
