Co-chairs:  J.P. Harris & Hillary Schenk

Pasadena Rotary’s “Shop With A Cop” partners with the Pasadena Police Department and the Pasadena Boys & Girls Club.  Youths in need are selected by the Pasadena Boys & Girls Club to participate in a shopping trip partnering them with Pasadena Police Officers and coordinated by Pasadena Rotarians at Target Stores.

The goal of this program is to provide positive environment where youths are “partnered” with a police office for an afternoon of shopping to create a bond and trust and start to develop a positive relationship with police.

Pasadena Rotary’s Shop With A Cop Event is held at the end of August when 20 youths from the Pasadena Boys & Girls Club can purchase needed back-to-school supplies through a $100 gift card to Target that Pasadena Rotary provides.

With good fundraising from the Annual Pasadena Fundraiser “Help Pasadena Rotary Help Others,” the club is able to provide a second “Shop With A Cop” event just before the winter holidays.
