This past Christmas, the Zebulon Police Department, spearheaded the first Shop with

a Cop Program. The program was designed to assist those less fortunate during the

holiday season.

The Police Department was able to adopt 5 Zebulon families, thus making their Christmas

Holiday far more festive. With assistance from Mr. Jeff Woodard at Zebulon’s East

Regional Center, we identified several needy families who resided within our town.

Officers from the Police Department conducted home visits with the families to try to

determine the extent of their need. We were able to provide the 5 selected families

with funds to buy food, toys, and food for the Christmas Dinner.

Some examples of those helped was a single mother with 5 children, a family of three

where the father has recently lost his job, and a mother who has just escaped a violent

and abusive relationship.

Funding for this program was made possible

by private money raised by The Enforcers

Motorcycle Club and Scoot Works, Inc. both

of Zebulon.
