Once a year the Carter County Sheriff's Office selects needy children in Carter County, and deputies take them on a shopping trip to buy Christmas presents. The children also get to attend a pizza party prior to the event with the deputies.  The children that are selected would typically receive little or no gifts at all without this program.  A Christmas meal is also provided for each child's family to take home with them after the event.  Most of the funds for this program are actually donated by the deputies themselves, out of their own pockets!  Thank you for considering to donate to this awesome program.
