In Peoria, police officers are swapping their handcuffs for serving trays at a Texas Roadhouse event to support Special Olympics Arizona. The fundraiser will be held today, August 28, from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the restaurant on N. Arrowhead Fountains Center Drive, combining great food with a good cause.
Officers will serve food at Texas Roadhouse, taking orders and delivering meals just like regular servers. All tips they collect will go directly to Special Olympics Arizona through the "Tip-A-Cop" event. According to a news release from the City of Peoria, police are the top donors to the Special Olympics globally, and this event gives locals a chance to contribute with their tips.
If you're nearby, visiting Texas Roadhouse isn’t just about enjoying a meal—it’s an opportunity to support the Special Olympics. This organization promotes inclusivity and competition for athletes with intellectual disabilities, and your participation can help advance this important global movement.
