CHARLOTTE, NC — Police motorcycles and patrol cars delivered some very special students to schools in Union and Cabarrus Counties Friday. It was part of Hometown Heroes: The Big Kids Helping Little Kids event.
The local non-profit works to take some of the burden off of families who have children battling serious and life-threatening illnesses. Kids escorted to school Friday have been cancer free for at least a year!
“I was wanting to ride on a motorcycle, but I have to ride in a police car,” said young Kate Zidanic. “But it was a pretty cool… because I’m going to be took to school in it.”
Hometown Heroes is celebrating its 13th anniversary.
