Cascade County detention officers are going above and beyond their usual duties to help families in need during the holiday season.

Through the Santa's Favorite Correctional Officers program, they provide discounted gift cards, organize fundraisers, and purchase presents for children who require assistance.

Led by Corporal Brandi Monks, the initiative has grown each year, supporting more children in the community.

The officers volunteer their time to collect wish lists, sell discount cards, and raise funds.

With plans to expand the program year-round, they aim to assist families with various needs beyond just holiday gifts.
