Each year, Coral Springs Police are paired with children for holiday shopping.

By Sharon Aron Baron

Coral Springs children received some holiday cheer.

For over 20 years, Coral Springs Police Department made the holidays brighter for local youth by holiday shopping with them on December 6 and December 7.

Taking place at Target by 441 and Walmart at the Turtle Run Plaza, police officers were paired with 42 children for holiday shopping, with each child receiving $125 to purchase gifts for themselves and family members. 

Children were identified by school officials and officers who work in community outreach programming. Funding was provided through a Walmart, and Target grant meant to build stronger bonds in the community.
