Residents Donate 75 'Thanksgiving Bags For Blue' To South Brunswick Police Officers

SOUTH BRUNSWICK, NJ— A group of South Brunswick residents came together to donate over 75 "Thanksgiving, Bags for Blue" to the South Brunswick Police Department, the department said in a release.

The Johnson Family-- mom Dawn, and twin ten-year-olds Megan and Haley-- partnered with Brandon Alterman of Brunswick Martial Arts and Fitness to create the goodie bags for the officers.

The bags are labeled "Survival Kits for Police," and are filled with candies that all have a meaning behind them.

“My children and I wanted to do something for the community. Police officers in this country have been through a lot lately and we wanted to show our appreciation," Dawn said.

“The officers of the South Brunswick Police Department greatly appreciate all of the effort that went into making over 75 'Thank You' bags. This is another great example of the unique bond that the South Brunswick Police Department and the residents of the township share," Police Chief Raymond Hayducka said. "Acts of kindness like this remind us how lucky we are to protect and serve this community.”
