The Kankakee Valley Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #129 held a shop with a cop event prior to the start of school.
FOP President Chris Kisela told WKVI News that they were able to assist 40 children with $125 in school supplies this year. On Aug. 10, the kids got to shop for clothes, shoes or whatever school supplies they needed with officers, dispatchers and officials from the Starke County Prosecutor’s Office at a department store in Valparaiso.
Kisela thanks all who donated throughout the year for the event and for the continued support that everyone gives the organization. A big event is planned for November and more information on that will be released soon.
