Cops
(Civilians on Patrol)
4 Kids is an ongoing program to present to the children of our neighborhoods
police officers as a positive influence in their lives. It was an idea
Peoria Police Officer Greg
Collins had to help the children in the early 1980's and he moved
forward with that idea to be a positive influence in peoples lives. It's a way for
children and police to interact in a positive manner, promoting a better
environment, providing a role model that is critical in a child's
development. Cops 4 Kids is staffed by volunteers time and help are the most valuable assets.
Peoria, Illinois area Police Officers and community volunteers are
critical to the program's success. Donations of time, funds, and
materials provide a successful program/service, successful for the
kids and the community in which they live. Cops 4 Kids also sponsors
annual fund raisers, which provide funds for fishing derby's, summer
day camp, Christmas program and gifts such as food, clothing, watches,
and toys for families in need. We provide assistance in other programs
throughout the year.
In 2008, Cops for Kids under the
direction of
Sammie Hoskins, Midwest
Cruisers, Don's Music Land, and the
Peoria Park Districtwill once again organize a Car Show hosted by the

There have been countless studies
done to prove it, but virtually everyone knows that spending quality
time with a kid is the greatest gift you can give them. And sharing
your appreciation for collector cars is a great way to nurture their
interest in a hobby that you can enjoy together for many years
to come. Please visit
