On Saturday morning, Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD) officers took children gift shopping at Target to celebrate the holiday season.
Each child received a $100 gift card donated by the Montgomery County Police Foundation. Officers helped kids buy presents for themselves — or family and friends — using the gift cards. About 100 children shopped with officers at Target stores throughout the county, with 30 kids shopping at the Rockville location.
The holiday shopping spree is a yearly event for the police department. The participating children are selected from community partners.
