Shop with a Cop; Shop with a Jock
Recently, Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo,
members of the Houston Police Department, the Harris County Sheriff's Office
and Target Superstore held the annual "Shop with a Cop, Shop
with a Jock" holiday event.
The holiday "extravaganza" took place at the Target
Superstore on South Main Street.
Forty pre-selected individuals participated in an hour-long event that
includes a 10-minute shopping spree and celebrity guest appearances with
current and retired professional athletes.
During the holiday season, it becomes harder for low income and
disadvantaged kids whose parents are struggling to find monetary opportunities
to purchase gifts. “Shop with a Cop, Shop with Jock” allows kids to “Live in
the Moment” and enjoy the holiday celebration.
