Want to make the holidays a lot brighter for families in Minneapolis? Support Heroes & Helpers which brings together volunteers, police officers, and 25 children from Minneapolis for an afternoon of shopping at Target to buy gifts for family members.
Heroes & Helpers is a program of the Minneapolis Police Department’s Police Activities League (PAL). PAL creates relationships between young people and police officers. It’s an effort that The Woman’s Club is proud to support.
On December 7, a young person will be paired with a police officer and a volunteer from The Woman’s Club to shop for holiday gifts for themselves and their family members at the Target store on Nicollet Mall. Each child will have $150 to shop with. Then, the children, volunteers, and officers come to The Woman’s Club where the gifts are wrapped while the young people enjoy cookies, hot chocolate, and entertainment.
Your gift – of any size – will unlock an additional $250 that is part of a match from a generous group of champions of the community engagement work that The Woman’s Club of Minneapolis does.
