If you are a family in need of a little extra assistance this year, please contact Lieutenant John LeDuc at jleduc@tivertonpoliceri.com with subject line Blue Santa, or Santa for Seniors to request an application for assistance.
Somerset Police are also holding their annual toy drive. If you find yourself needing assistance, please reach out to A_frates@somersetpd.org. They will be accepting names until 11/20. EMAILING IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE ADDED TO THE LIST. They do their best to assist each person however priority will be given to Somerset & Swansea residents as there are no other toy drives dedicated to these towns. With that being said they will still make every effort to assist people in other communities as well.
If you are a local business or any business wishing to help with toys or gift cards, please reach out to A_frates@somersetpd.org.
