/The Kearney Police Department is accepting donations to their annual Shop With a Cop program. Officers will be out collecting money to help buy presents for children at several locations this year.
The Police Department loves this program and so far, they have been able to give to over 400 kids through Shop With a Cop.
“The Kearney Police Department has a rich tradition of this yearly fundraising effort that allows us to bring deserving children shopping before Christmas,” reads their post on social media. “It is an effort that the department has been committed to for a number of years and we enjoy every bit of it!”
Officers will be collecting money at the following locations in November:
November 9, all day at Bulldog Nutrition and Kearney Nutrition
November 12, 5 – 8 pm at La Fuente
November 16, 8 am – noon at Price Chopper

People can also donate at Venmo@KearneyMO-ShopwithaCop or by dropping off a check at Kearney Trust Bank (main bank or at Price Chopper). Donors can also stop by the Police Department to make a direct donation to Shop With a Cop.
Kearney Officers will be shopping with close to 50 children from the Kearney School District on Saturday, December 14, at Wal-mart on Church Road in Liberty.
