Carbon Valley Santa Cops: Sharing Tree Now Up

The Carbon Valley Santa Cops program is an annual event in which the Firestone, Frederick and Dacono Police Departments provide a gift, warm winter clothing and necessities to underrepresented children in the Carbon Valley area during the holiday season.

The Firestone Police Department now has their sharing tree decorated in the lobby of their building with special ornaments that contain a wish from a child that is enrolled in the Firestone Santa Cops Program. To participate in the sharing tree, please pick one of these special ornaments, purchase a gift for the child, wrap the gift and affix the ornament to the package. Return the gift to the sharing tree no later than Wednesday, December 8, 2021.

The Carbon Valley Santa Cop program is still accepting referrals for families in need for the upcoming holiday season.  If your family needs assistance this year or you know of a family in need, please read the informational letter and fill out the application online at www.firestoneco.gov/SantaCops.  Forms may also be picked up from the Firestone Police Department. Referral forms are due by Friday, November 19, 2021.  Please note: not all applicants will be accepted, as space is limited, income qualifications apply.
