Meriden Police to Participate in No Shave November

Officers will ditch the razor for a good cause.

Many Meriden Police officers will be leaving the razor on the counter for the month of November in order to raise money for families of children with cancer.

The police union and department are conducting the fundraiser where officers will donate a minimum of $25.

Donations will benefit Circle of Care, a Connecticut non-profit that assists families of children with cancer.
