Shop with a Cop in Milford paired underprivileged children with law enforcement

The REACH Foundation and Connecticut Law Enforcement strengthen their community outreach while helping families in need this holiday season

Shop with a Cop, a one on one shopping experience pairing underprivileged children with law enforcement took place today at Bolero Bowling Lanes in Milford. Thank you to all of the Officers who participated - what a way to make the season bright!   

According to the REACH Foundation, Shop with a Cop provides a fun-filled day for a number of children in need throughout Connecticut while creating positive relationships with law enforcement.  This unique December shopping experience assists children and can deter them from choosing a life of crime or violence. The participating children are identified by schools, churches, youth organizations, and social services agencies.

Since 2013, The REACH Foundation has provided this experience to over 1200 families throughout Connecticut including Southington, Milford, Enfield, Manchester and many other areas have been hosts to "Shop with a Cop Program".
