Dudley Police Department
Press Release
December 20th, 2018 II
The Dudley Police Department collected donations for needy families during the holiday season. Many people and area businesses made generous contributions to this worthwhile cause. A large volume of toys, clothing, and other gifts were provided to Dudley residents who needed assistance during these difficult times. These were distributed on Thursday, December 20th. Thanks to the generosity of those who donated, approximately 25 local families, including some 60 children, will enjoy the holiday season when they would have otherwise gone without.
This year, the department put out a public plea in early December, due to lower than normal donations. The incredible response from the community was beyond any expectation. Over 200 gifts and several thousand dollars were donated toward this effort. A special thank you goes out to Solar Wolf Energy, the Fels’ Family Foundation, Jimmy’s Pizza, Dean Mason Paving, and the Rottman family for their generosity. Several other families and individuals made significant contributions toward this campaign. Large toy donations were made by members of the Dudley Women’s Club, Nichols College and the Public Safety Department, and Shepherd Hill Regional Student Council. Tremendous thanks and appreciation go out to everyone who contributed. Any leftover toys will be distributed to local families in conjunction with organizations such as Webster Dudley Food Share.
Credit and thanks go out to Officers Chandler Boyd and Marek Karlowicz (as well as Admin. Assistant Steve Chlapowski) for another outstanding job coordinating and organizing this year’s drive.
The Dudley Police Department would once again like to thank the many residents and others who answered the call for assistance with extreme generosity toward this worthwhile cause. This was a tremendous success once again. We wish everyone a Happy, Healthy, and Safe Holiday Season and New Year.
