Texarkana's 'Shop With a Cop & Firefighter' Fundraiser Launched

It's not time for parents to sign up the kids just yet, but we all know that Christmas will be here quicker than any of us "adults" will be ready to accept. That means it's time to raise funds for the Texarkana Texas "Shop With A Cop & Firefighter" program.

2022 Shop with a Cop and Firefighter 3

Shop with a Cop & Firefighter is an official 501:C3 charitable organization so your contributions are tax-deductible. I'm no tax expert, but I believe that goes for donating items for prizes, or you're just buying tickets for a chance to win like me. The ticket selling has begun for the raffle drawings that will take place on October 11, 2023.

Tickets need to be sold and sponsors are still being recruited as we get closer to the big day with the Big Guy... (Santa).
