The Fairfield Police Department plans to hold its annual Cops Care for Kids event Thursday and Friday, Dec. 15 and 16.
Officers will host families at the Fairfield Community Center at 61 Water St. for a movie, hot cocoa and presents. Families can sign up for their preferred date and time at fairfieldcopscare.com.
Through Cops Care for Kids, officers deliver gifts to children that live in Fairfield. This program has been ongoing for nearly 20 years and has placed thousands of gifts into the hands of kids, according to a news release from Officer Casey Dugas.
Families also can request an at-home delivery the week of Christmas.
For more information about the event, call Officer Shanna Blodgett or Chief Tom Gould at 207-453-9393.
