CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. (KBSI) – The Cape Girardeau Police Department participated in the annual shop with a hero event.

The annual shop with a hero event is led by Walmart. Local businesses donate funding for select children to get to pick out whatever toys or items they want while also shopping a first responder/hero.

The Cape Girardeau Police Department says it’s one of the highlights of the year for officers.

The Cape Girardeau Police Department Facebook page says “Seeing the smiles on the faces of children as we shop together reminds us of the true meaning of the season: connection, kindness, and giving back. We’re honored to be a part of this special event.”
