38 kids will have a better Christmas because of donations to the N-town Police Foundation's "Seven Days Before Christmas" project. You can help the Foundation help our community by making a minimum $10 donation. You get a lawn sign for your pledge. Bring your donation to the Police Department (235 E Airy, rear) or Signarama at Logan Square. Let's help them raise funds and show our support by putting these signs up all over town.
