Carson City sheriff's deputies raise $1,527 at Applebee's fundraiser for Special Olympics
The Carson City Sheriff’s Office partnered with Applebee's on Wednesday night and raised $1,527 for the Tip-A-Cop event to benefit Special Olympics Nevada.
Local law enforcement officials served as “celebrity waiters” at Applebee’s with 100-percent of their tips going directly to Special Olympics.
Tip-A-Cop is an annual fundraising event organized by The Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, where law enforcement officers volunteer their time as “celebrity waiters” in restaurants and receive tips to raise funds for Special Olympics, the world’s largest sports organization for people with intellectual disabilities.
Elsewhere, the Applebee's in Reno held a similar Tip-A-Cop event Wednesday night and raised $1,534.
