The first-ever virtual Law Enforcement Torch Run to benefit Special Olympics Maryland is being held October 12-25. This annual event is normally scheduled in June but was postponed due to the pandemic. This year’s participants may have had to keep their distance from one another but they certainly pulled together to raise money for and awareness of Special Olympics Maryland.

This marks 34 years that Baltimore County police officers and Special Olympics athletes have joined in supporting this fundraiser. It’s not too late to make an online contribution to the BCoPD Virtual Law Enforcement Torch Run team; 100 percent of your donation goes toward supporting the sports and leadership programs offered throughout Maryland. Your contribution allows these programs to be free to athletes and families.

The BCoPD is proud to have raised thousands of dollars over the years to support Special Olympics Maryland.
