Santa Cops of Weld County Annual Toy Drive Collects Gifts Now Through Jan. 9

Windsor News by Town of Windsor

Join the Windsor Police Department as they participate in Santa Cops of Weld County’s annual holiday toy drive to support families facing financial difficulties.

Santa Cops of Weld County was founded in 1986 by the Greeley Police Department and is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The organization works to provide toys to children in Weld County unlikely to receive anything for the holidays, as well as to improve relationships between police and the communities they serve. Families are referred to the program by law enforcement agencies, Weld County schools, Weld County Probation and the Weld County Department of Human Services. Each year, Santa Cops of Weld County gives over 5,000 gifts, thanks to community generosity and participation.
