Members of the Voorhees Police Department participated in No Shave November in 2018 to raise funds and awareness for the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation.
Today our officers presented a check for over $3,000.00 to the National Pancreatic Cancer Foundation from the funds raised by our officers and staff. We would like to thank Panera Bread of Voorhees for donating breakfast for the event this morning.
