The Linden Police Superior Officers Association (LPSOA) hoped to spread some holiday spirit by visiting several area residents and surprising them with some winter essentials.
LPSOA President, Lt. Michael Babulski, assisted by Vice-President Sgt. Airan Fernandez and Treasurer Lt. Nancy Petroski purchased several coats for families who were having a difficult holiday season. The families’ names were given to the LPSOA by St. Theresa’s and White Rock Baptist Churches in Linden.
“Many of the families had several children where the parent had lost a job; the holidays are a special time of the year, and we at the LPSOA are proud to provide a little joy to families that are struggling,” said President Babulski.
“Each family was provided with a winter coat for each member of the family as well as a gift card for Shop Rite. I can’t thank the Napp-Grecco Company enough for their generous donation. We used those funds to provide these coats and gift cards. They have been such a big supporter for the residents of Linden who are in need.”
“I can’t thank the LPSOA enough for their assistance, so many families need help and every little bit helps,” said Janice Brown.
