Law Enforcement Torch Run Special Olympics
Last week, Newtown Police, Redding Police and State Department of Corrections carried the Flame of Hope in support of the Special Olympics.
Newtown Officers raised $4,000 this year in support of our Olympians and the Special Olympics.
The Law Enforcement Torch Run® is Special Olympics' single largest grass-roots fundraiser and public awareness vehicle. Since its inception, the International Torch Run Program has raised more than US $414 million for Special Olympics world-wide. More than 142,000 volunteers from 113 LETR programs across 46 countries every year carry the "Flame of Hope", raising awareness and funds for Special Olympics.
