It’s officially Police Lights of Christmas Fundraising Season!

Tuesday, July 26th, 11am - 8pm; please come to the Portage Pizza Ranch and meet the officers that protect your community, share a meal with your family – all while helping a neighbor in need!

All donations and funds raised from our events get turned into gift cards (which we purchase from local area schools’ Scrip programs).

The officers are then able to utilize these gift cards to help people in need that they come into contact with while on patrol throughout Christmas/Winter.

Last November we handed off over $165,000 in gift cards to over 50 law enforcement agencies throughout Wisconsin!

The Police Lights of Christmas Program – supporting our local heroes AND helping our neighbors in need = stronger communities!
