Five children will be chosen from the Mansfield School District to participate in Christmas with Kids. The Mansfield Police Department will be sponsoring the event, made possible with donations from local residents.
On Saturday, December 15, those children will get to shop at the Greenwood Walmart alongside members of the police department. Two hundred dollars per child has been allocated for them to spend.
This is an annual event and it allows the child to have a Christmas which might not be otherwise possible. The children are able to choose practical items, like warm coats and shoes, along with toys.
