Donate to Special Olympics Friday, Get a Free Donut

Want to receive a free donut for donating to a great cause? 

Join the Bolingbrook Police Department from 5 a.m. to noon Friday in supporting the Special Olympics of Illinois during "Cop on Top." 

Police officers will be volunteering at two of Bolingbrook Dunkin' Donuts locations ( and ) and asking for donations. Everyone who donates will receive a coupon for a free donut. 

Those who donate $10 or more will receive a Law Enforcement Torch Run travel mug, while supplies last. The mug gets you free refills at participating Dunkin’ Donuts stores on Friday.

Donations will be used to sponsor Illinois athletes participating in Special Olympics events. 

Why is it called "Cop on Top?"

A police officer will be on the roof of the Dunkin' Donuts, and only donations can get him or her down.

Bolingbrook police will also participate in the Law Enforcement Torch Run on June 7 and the Gordon Biersch Fundraiser on June 21.

The Special Olympics, according to a release, provides year-round training and competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities by giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families and friends.
