Shop With a Cop

On December 22nd, the DC Police Foundation was delighted to be able to send 130 kids from DC to have a fun day of shopping with MPD Officers at Target DCUSA store.  Each child was presented with a $100 gift card to spend, courtesy of Target and a local foundation. Chief Cathy Lanier is shown here shopping with Diamond Mayberry, 13 years old.

Chief Durham was driving in Ward 5 one day when he noticed three young students surrounding a person on the ground. Naturally, he stopped to see what was happening. To his surprise, he came upon  Diamond and her siblings, who were trying to help an elderly man who had fallen to the ground on their way to school. He asked for their information and selected them to participate in this year's Shop with a Cop program.
