- SHOP WITH A COP EVENT -

On Thursday, December 21st, starting at 5 PM, the Morgan Hill Police Officers’ Association will be hosting our third Shop with a Cop event. On behalf of the POA, I invite you to join us for this wonderful occasion.

The Morgan Hill Cops for Kids Foundation hosts a yearly golf tournament to fundraise for this event. All funds raised are then given back to the Morgan Hill community during the holiday season. This year, we will again host a Heroes & Helpers / Shop with a Cop event.

Shop with a Cop pairs selected children from all Morgan Hill Unified School District elementary schools with an officer. Each child is awarded a $100 shopping spree at Target and will shop with a uniformed Morgan Hill Police Officer.

Fourth grade students were asked to vote for their classmates based on the following criteria:
• The student is an example for others.
• The student is a leader.
• The student is self-motivated.
• The student is self-disciplined.
• The student is socially responsible.

This is an opportunity for the future leaders of our community to be awarded and recognized for their hard work and dedication to being role models. More importantly, this is an opportunity for these children to have a positive interaction with a local police officer to foster better relations and change perceptions. Sixty children have been chosen to participate in this event.

We hope you can stop by and cover this fun event. This event will surely promote a feel-good story for our community. The event will run from 5 PM to approximately 9 PM at the Morgan Hill Police Department. The shopping at Target will begin at 6:45 PM

If you have any questions, please contact Sergeant Carlos Guerrero at 408-461-0748 or [email protected].

Thank you.
