The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and California Pizza Kitchen in Brentwood are teaming up soon to support local Special Olympics athletes.
On October 16, from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m., the LAPD West Los Angeles Division will host a Tip-A-Cop fundraiser at California Pizza Kitchen in Brentwood, 11677 San Vicente Boulevard.
LAPD officers, taking “protect and serve” to a whole new level, will be guest servers and all donations received will be donated to Special Olympics Southern California athletes in LA County.
“Come join us for delicious food, fun, and to support Special Olympics!” said event organizers. “Donations are tax-deductible and 100 percent of the tips from this event will go to benefit local Special Olympics Southern California athletes.”
