Cops helping Cops begins construction of the first homes on August 27, 2006. With members of the NYPD, FDNY, and Michigan Sheriffs Office, volunteers will be heading down on Sunday to start the first of many homes. Cops Helping Cops will be trying to complete a home in eight days. They have been lucky enough to have help from many different sources. Companies, Foundations, Police Officers, Firefighters and individuals are all stepping up to the plate.
It will be a huge job. However the payoff will be much larger. All of us going down know not only how important it is to help each other out in a time of need, but how amazing it will be to tell someone they can bring their family home.
