Police and 12 children from the Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa spent Sunday morning shopping together in a nationwide program from Target called Heroes and Helpers.
Each child, aged five to 16, was given a $150 gift card from the store to spend on Christmas presents — for themselves or others.
The program helps officers build positive relationships with youth and mentor children in the community.
The group met up at the Target location on St. Laurent Boulevard at 8:30 a.m., where an officer and child were paired for the shopping spree. Then, the officers helped with selections and judicious decision-making, and had fun trying out the various gadgets and gizmos.

Which to choose?

Sergeant Kirk Miller poses with Ferdi Ndarishikije, 16, for a photo after being the first pair done their shopping.
Ferdi Ndarishikije chose a new tablet.
