Members of the Barrington Police Department invited well deserving students from Barrington School District 220 to shop alongside Barrington police officers for new school clothing and shoes. The Barrington Police Benevolent Association partnered with Project Hope, a charity of St. Anne Catholic Church in Barrington. The event was held at Kohl’s in Arlington Heights. We wish them all a successful school year!

We had an amazing time with 16 families for our Annual Holiday Shop with a Cop. Thank you to everyone that played a roll in making this event happen. We started out with a catered breakfast at the Police/Fire Department Building, where all participants were given a wrapped gift. We also had a raffle table with items such as an American Girl Doll, a wireless speaker system, scooter, skateboard, giant castle, and a memory foam chair. We also gave each child a candy bag from the Sweet Spot of Barrington and a book and a stuffed animal from Kohl's. We then all met at the Lake Zurich Target for a great morning of shopping. Thank you to Target for donating a girls and boys bike plus helmet for our event.

We had another successful Shop with a Cop on August 2, 2015. We took 54 Kids Shopping at Kohl's. Thank You Project Hope for your continued support of our organization.

A big thank you to Project Hope for sponsoring the event
