Clean Up The Mountain | Shop with a Sheriff | YCSO Around the County |
(Posted June 26, 2019)
(Updated October 28, 2021)
It is with great joy that Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office announces that we've figured out a way to make a COVID-friendly Shop with a Sheriff event happen in 2021! Sheriff Svenson has determined that, while we will hold the event this year, it will not be our standard Sunday night shopping event.
Instead, we are excited to introduce an alternative approach that we believe will still help our most vulnerable children and their families. For 2021, we will be identifying families through the local schools, as has been our past practice. Those families will get a personal visit from YCSO staff/volunteers or members of fellow agencies to deliver a gift card packet. The intention of these gift cards is to help offset the family’s usual expenses so that they can purchase gifts. The total amount of the gift cards will be the $100 that the Shop with a Sheriff usually is. The delivery date and time will be coordinated in advance to ensure that families are home and available to receive the gift cards.
Individuals and businesses who would like the opportunity to get involved can reach out to [email protected] to be connected with our SWAS Donation Coordinator. Given the change in approach this year, the best way to get involved is through either an in-kind gift (as gift cards that can be used at your local business) or a tax-deductible monetary donation.
We have adjusted our levels of giving due to our modified approach but appreciate any level of participation; there is no minimum donation required. Our Patron-levels sponsors will be recognized in our media communications regarding the program, on our social media pages, and here on the Sheriff’s Office website. The levels are:
