Kids and Cops program helps sick children in Omaha
Fox News
Police officers in Omaha, Nebraska, have found a unique way to protect and serve their communities through involvement in a Kids and Cops program, a charity aimed at helping children facing serious medical conditions and their families worried about their health and looming medical expenses.
"This was started for kids facing serious medical conditions in hopes to give them and their families a break from what they have been going through," Rath said in a statement to FOX News, explaining the officers bring much-needed joy in an otherwise difficult situation.
"The officers and their family members are truly remarkable for all the work that they’ve provided and have tremendous hearts. Their ability to be childlike and silly during these events has created a wonderful environment for the kids and their families to have fun moments together and forget about the difficult times they’ve been encountering," said Rath.
