Naval Elks Lodge #353 recently donated $2,500 to the Port Angeles Police Association to support this year’s Shop with a Hero program.
The funds came from an Elks National Foundation Gratitude grant.
The Shop with a Hero program pairs local youths with first responders to go holiday gift shopping, gift wrapping, hot chocolate and get photos with Santa.
