CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – Saturday morning, local law enforcement will hold their annual fundraiser, “COP ON TOP” to raise money for Special Olympics programs.

Community members had the chance to visit the Chicopee Walmart to show their support and give back during the holiday season. Law enforcement officers were on top of the store’s rooftop, raising awareness and funds for their torch-run program, benefiting the Special Olympics of Massachusetts.

This event is being organized by volunteers from both the Chicopee Police Department and the Hampden County Sheriff’s Office. All proceeds go directly to the Massachusetts Special Olympic athletes, and you’ll be able to meet some of them on Saturday.

If you want to stop by and donate, local law enforcement is expected to continue fundraising through 4 PM Saturday.
