6:00am | The Long Beach police Department is hoping the community will give them lots of tips on the evening of April 5. Instead of the kind that help them solve crimes, they will be working hard for tip donations as they wait tables at the Long Beach Claim Jumper Restaurant, which they will donate to a good cause. Officers participate in this annual fundraising event, called “Tip-A-Cop,” to raise funds for Special Olympics athletes, making it possible for them to participate in the Special Olympics Games.
The donations that the hard-working officers raise while working at “Tip-A-Cop” go directly to the Long Beach area Special Olympics athletes.
