Despite the loss of a big partner, “Shop With a Cop” will continue this year in Brown County.
For 25 years, members of law enforcement went to Shopko with low-income kids to get gifts. But Shopko’s bankruptcy this year put that program in doubt.
De Pere Police Officer Jed Bradley says Walmart will fill that gap.
Before going out of business, Shopko left “Shop With a Cop” a grant. There’s enough money to continue the program for at least three more years.
