This year the Wichita Police & Fire Foundation and the Wichita Police Department will team up with Walmart to hold the 2023 “Shop With A Cop” event. Thanks to the Walmart Foundation Community Grant Program 20+ underserved children will get to shop for a Christmas gifts.

Children identified through WPD Random Acts of Kindness submissions, the Juvenile Intervention Unit & WPD Community Policing Units will be paired with a Wichita police officer who will accompany the child around the store and help select an appropriate gift. Once gift(s) have been purchased, participants will enjoy snacks and visit with Santa.

Donations can be sent by mail to the following address or electronically through our secure portal by utilizing the donate button :

This is a great way to bring some joy into the holiday season, to teach young people the importance of giving, and for the child to get to know one of our local police officers. Thank you in advance for your help and the opportunity to help the kids in our community.
