Wanted by Troy Police: Donors to Help Residents in Need
The Troy Police Department is again looking for sponsors to help residents in need during the upcoming holiday season.
“As police officers, we see firsthand how the holidays can be particularly hard for some,” said Chief Frank Nastasi. “This program gives us the opportunity to come together with community partners to help our residents in need.”
Sponsors can contribute by “adopting a family” or by donating cash or gift cards. Recipient families or individuals are provided with holiday gifts and food, delivered via “blue sleigh” by officers and volunteers before Christmas.
The department is now matching sponsors and families in need. Those wishing to contribute should contact Officer Greg Pokley, pokleyga@troymi.gov, 248-680-7223 by Nov. 25.
