Kids, Cops, and Christmas as Beneficial to Police as the Children

The holiday season is approaching fast and the Taylorville Police Department has a program in mind to make sure kids in the community can have the best possible Christmas. Kids, Cops and Christmas is already accepting nominations for kids in the county to be chosen to have a $100 Christmas shopping spree. Sargent Alan Mills with the Taylorville Police Department said this is a fun day not only for the kids but for the Taylorville PD, as the kids get to go wild and make sure they get a dream present this year.

Sargent Mills said there is generally about 40-50 kids chosen to participate in the fun every year, but the number can vary depending on how much money the Taylorville Police Department can raise and how much people in the county donate. He said all of the money raised goes directly to Kids, Cops, and Christmas.

Sargent Mills appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
