LAPD “Badges for Bandages” Raises Childhood Cancer Awareness Colorful Bandage Donations Bring Joy to Young Cancer Patients.
The Los Angeles Police Department is inviting everyone to participate in its Badges for Bandages drive to help raise awareness about children suffering from cancer.
Children receiving cancer treatments endure intense hardships as they experience the painful agonies associated with cancer and cope with spending time away from home in the hospital. The Badges for Bandages campaign, which benefits childhood cancer patients at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, helps alleviate their suffering by bringing smiles to the faces of children when they see the colorful caricatures printed on their bandages.
The campaign is in effect now through December 1, and donation bins are located at all LAPD station lobbies throughout the City of Los Angeles.
