An effort undertaken by the staff in the Bureau of Field Services located in Boston Police Headquarters, to provide disadvantaged children with Christmas gifts has once again been successful. Over 500 hundred children, identified by the various Youth Service Officers from around the City, are due to receive Christmas gifts from Boston Police Personnel.
The “Giving Tree”, provides information on children who could use a little something extra during the Christmas Season. Gifts have been piling up and will be ready for delivery this week. Captain Genevieve King assigned to the Bureau of Field Services has coordinated this annual effort of goodwill.
This is one of several initiatives that are undertaken by various units and divisions of the Boston Police Department during the Christmas season. Many of the Police Districts across the City assist families and provide Christmas gifts for those in need.
