The Cleveland Police Foundation is proud to announce we have partnered up with the Rid-All Green Partnership Urban Farm located at 8129 Otter Road in the 4th District. In conjunction with this partnership I was invited along with Executive Director, Chas Lane of the foundation to the Anti Gun Violence & Art Competition held on 9-12-15 at their location. This competition stemmed from a toy gun buyback held earlier in the year and the participants were encouraged to enter a drawing, painting, or sculpture in connection with this event. At the buyback each family that turned in a toy gun received a $25.00 gift card from Dave’s Supermarket, and comic books. A good crowd turned out despite the rainy weather to support the 18 adults, and children that provided the excellent entries. The three winners in the following categories each received a check for $1.000.00 and they were:
Drawing – Age 17 & under
Winner – Malachi Reynolds Titled – Simple Solution
