Photo by Canyon Lake Insider.Canyon Laker Reece Walsh and several of her classmates from Tuscany Hills Elementary School will be collecting donations for Cops for Kids on Saturday, November 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Canyon Lake Country Club.
Reece’s goal is to raise $5,000 by December 11. Residents who are unable to attend the fundraiser at the country club may donate at www.copsforkidsinc.org/event/fill-the-stocking.
Cops for Kids was founded in 1995 by two deputies on patrol from the Lake Elsinore Sheriff’s Station who saw a need in the community and took up a collection from other deputies at the station.
The deputies started by delivering gifts to underprivileged children while on patrol at Christmas time. Today, Cops for Kids has grown into a 501(c)(3) non-profit serving hundreds of children, seniors, and families each year.
