BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — Giving Tuesday is a time to give back through local organizations and one organization you can help is the Bakersfield Police Activities League.
BPAL is a non-profit charitable organization formed in 1994 by police officers and concerned citizens. Police officers and other community members volunteer their time as coaches, mentors, role models, and friends to children in our community.
The program works with at-risk youth in high crime neighborhoods. To donate, visit www.bakersfieldpal.org, or call their office at (661) 283-8880.
