Local families needing a little help this holiday season have until Friday to submit an application for the Miami County Cops for Tots Angel Tree Program. The Angel Tree has been an annual tradition for Miami County Cops For Tots, which provides Christmas gifts for local children in need. This year the tree is located in the lobby of the Sheriff’s Office at 209 S. Pearl St.
Its branches have paper “Angels” featuring the name of a local child in need, along with a gift idea. Families in need of assistance are asked to apply as soon as possible. Applications can be printed off the Miami County Sheriff’s Office, Cops for Tots Facebook Page and they are due by Friday.
Cops for Tots began in 1995 as a tribute, dedicated to the memory of Sheriff Ken Davis. The program reaches hundreds of children each year, not only through the Angel Tree Program, but also by providing assistance to children throughout the year and helping stock local food pantries.
