Shop with a Cop Fundraiser 2019

The Lake County Deputy Sheriff’s Association has been committed to making Christmas special for many Lake County children.  Each year the Lake County Deputy Sheriff's Association holds a Shop with a Cop event to provide underprivileged youth in our county to a Christmas shopping experience.  To make this event a success we created an annual fundraiser called, "Christmas in July".  We learned the hard way that having a fundraiser during fire season was problematic. So we have moved our annual event to November and will simply call it the “Shop with a Cop Benefit Fundraiser”. This annual event raises enough money to take each child shopping with a law enforcement officer to purchase necessary items as well as gifts.  

This idea started after the devastating Valley Fire in 2015.  Since that time, the Lake County Deputy Sheriff’s Association has continued to grow the Shop with a Cop event.  In 2018, law enforcement officers from around the county took 110 children shopping.  These children were able to spend 200.00 dollars each.  During this experience you can tell the connection made between the children and the officers is undeniable.  

There will be approximately 125 people at this year's fundraiser.  The event will be held at the Boatique Winery on November 2^nd, 2019 from 6 to 9 PM.
