Annual Shop With A Cop (Winter Project)
Traditionally, this event helps foster positive relationships between youth and officers. Kids, K - 5th grade, are selected each holiday season to shop for gifts for their immediate family. Each child is given a small amount of money to spend, approximately 1-2 children are assigned to each Officer, who then escorts them around the store and assists in selecting appropriate gifts. After shopping, the children will eat lunch, wrap their gifts, and continue to get to know the Washington County Support Staff and Officers, building positive connections in our neighborhoods.
2021 - as in 2020, COVID impacted the ability to do things as in the past, but Shop With A Cop is going forward. Families are selected by the local school. The School, Raleigh Park Elementary in our situation, works with the Sheriff's Office to identify the family needs. Volunteers make the purchases, and other items in need, along with food boxes. Because of the generosity of our members and their friends and colleagues, we were able to help 15 students and their families (helping over 75 family members) in 2020 and 2021 . Donations may be accepted by check at Kristl Oliver American Family Insurance Office, RHBA, or online by debit or credit. We'll happily accept any and all donations, but your contribution will go further if paid by check!
Thank you for participating in our Winter Project to make the lives of those less fortunate a little better. It is one of the ways we live our mission: To Support the community of Raleigh Hills: to promote a vibrant business environment, maintain a safe and healthy climate, create community consciousness, and maximize livability.

Five Tips To Help Find ID Theft
- Read all of your credit card statement and your bank statement, Look for things that are out of place or that you do not recognize.
- Know when your bills are due. If they do not arrive on time – make a call and find out why. Most are computer generated and should show up in time for you to snail-mail a check which is by the way the best way to pay. Not online.
- Read all statements from your health care provider and insurance. Again, look for things that are out of place such as a treatment you never received.
- Shred any document you get with personal id information on it when you no longer need it. Be sure to include the barcode where all the info is contained.
- Review each of your credit reports each year. They are free and you should see nothing out of the ordinary from year to year.
NOTE: This activity is all after the fact data. If you find a problem here you can go to www.identitytheft.gov and start the correction process. They have some helpful ideas.
