While our annual December event pairs over 200 local youth with first responders to share a warm meal and shop for holiday gifts, the mission of our Shop with a Cop & Firefighter program reaches far beyond December.

This program is a year-round outreach initiative dedicated to building lasting trust and positive relationships between local youth and Jonesborough’s first responders. By creating positive, everyday interactions outside of emergency calls, our officers and firefighters serve as mentors, approachable figures, and trusted allies for kids and families throughout the community.

Every dollar directly funds both our holiday shopping experiences and youth engagement efforts across Jonesborough all year long.
