Blue Santa Needs Your Help | S1 E11: Spread Holiday Cheer with the Beaumont Police Department
The Beaumont Police Department has been running the #BlueSanta program for over 30 years to help children in need and foster positive police interactions. Learn how you can get involved in spreading joy throughout the community during the holiday season and year-round. Unlike other cities, BPD’s Blue Santa is not a self-sign-up style program. Instead, our officers nominate families in need who they have encountered throughout the year. Tune in learn how you can get involved! This year, BPD’s Blue Santa Program will be providing Christmas toys for over 250 children in the city of Beaumont. Blue Santa will have a police escort throughout the city as they deliver toys and spread Christmas Cheer! As always, the Blue Santa Program would not be possible without the generous donations of so many businesses, organizations, and citizens in our community.
