Madison, WI – A community-focused fundraiser is bringing residents together Sunday morning as the VFW Post 1318 Auxiliary hosts a pancake breakfast to support local youth through the “Shop With a Cop” program.
According to event organizers, the breakfast is being held Sunday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at VFW Post 1318, located at 2740 Ski Lane in Madison. Proceeds raised during the event will go directly to Shop With a Cop – Dane County Inc., a nonprofit aimed at strengthening relationships between law enforcement and the community while assisting children from financially disadvantaged families.
The program allows children to shop for holiday gifts alongside law enforcement officers, creating positive interactions while helping families during the holiday season. Organizers say the initiative plays a key role in fostering trust and providing meaningful support to those in need.
Attendees can expect a full breakfast menu including pancakes, eggs, sausage, milk, orange juice and mimosas. The event is open to the public, and community members are encouraged to attend and contribute to the cause.
