Today you will have the opportunity to tip-a-top-cop! No, not out on the street to get out of a ticket, but at the Urth Caffé to help raise money for a good cause.
Today, Thursday, June 16th, LAPD officers (including Captains and other high ranking officers) will be volunteering their time to serve the patrons of Urth Caffé (451 S. Hewitt St. or at (213) 797-4534) by pouring coffee, waiting tables and greeting customers. All of this is to raise money for local Special Olympic athletes.
The annual fundraiser, which usually raises $1,500 to $3,000, is donated to the Special Olympics Southern California nonprofit to pay for the uniforms, equipment and training needs of local athletes.
The fundraiser is scheduled from noon to 7 p.m. Donations are tax-deductible.
I hope you all support this important event for such a great cause. I know I will stop in for a coffee or snack today!
