Companies to raise money for fallen officer fund

Posted by Geeky Swedes on December 7th, 2009

Updated: Ivar’s will be donating 100% profits from all chowder sales on Tuesday, Dec. 8th. (Thanks T Dub!)

Papa John’s Pizza will be donating all the money they make on Tuesday and Wednesday to the Lakewood Police Independent Guild. We spoke with the manager of Papa John’s at 9000 Holman Road who tells us that “Everything we make will go to the fund.”

Then on Friday, Dec. 11th, Pemco Insurance will hold a fundraising event at The Canal here in Ballard. For $25 (plus a $2.37 fee) you get appetizers and soft drinks, plus there will be activities. “The price of admission directly benefits the children of the fallen officers in a trust, and provides an evening for us to come together as a community to honor and remember those who lost their lives,” the company’s website states. Each ticket sale will be matched by Pemco, who has pledged to match $12,500. You can buy tickets and make a donation to the Lakewood Police Independent Guild here.
