“This event reminds us how generous and united our town is,” said Greenwich Police Chief Jim Heavey. “The Greenwich Police Department is proud to serve such a supportive community. The Scholarship Fund helps ensure our officers’ children have the chance to achieve their academic goals—and the success of this car show reflects how deeply our neighbors value that mission.”
Chief Heavey announced that the Greenwich Police Department Scholarship Fund provided 16 scholarships last year to college-aged students of current Greenwich Police Officers.
