10th Annual Back To School Shop with a Cop July 30 and 31st, 2014

School Shop with Cop LogoThe Police Officers of Scottsdale Association Outreach team is proud to announce our 10th annual Back to School Shop with a Cop event in conjunction with Payless Shoe Source, Vista del Camino and Concerned Citizens. Helping us again this year will be DPS GIITEM, AZ State Gang Task force and SPD SROs.

This program has been designed to unite Scottsdale Police Officers and public safety employees with local disadvantaged school children to enable them to put their best foot forward when starting the new school year. Each child will be eligible to receive new shoes, several outfits of clothing and a backpack full of school supplies. All parents will receive fingerprints and new pictures of their children for the school year taken by the police officers working in the school district and in their communities.

It is a great time for cops and kids to interact and break down the barriers that often exist. The goal is to not only financially help these children but to let them know they have someone to turn too when faced with a potential crisis (drugs, gangs, weapons, bullying etc.)

Children will be screened through the local community centers and Human Services for financial need. Last year the program sponsored almost 500 children who needed assistance along with the support of Payless Shoe Source and the many donations from our citizens and business community in Scottsdale. In these hard economic times, we are faced with the certainty that the number of kids needing your help will continue to increase.

The Police Officers of Scottsdale Association strongly believes that we are making a difference in the lives of our children and families in the Scottsdale area and surrounding communities and we are grateful for your support as we continue our year-round programming efforts.
