Members of the Coeur d’Alene Police Department are taking a break from shaving to help fight cancer for the next month during “No Shave November”. Officers are normally clean shaven with the exception of a possible mustache. Chief Lee White has endorsed this effort by our officers to bring attention to the fight against cancer. The idea was formed on a national level in 2009 that rather than spending money on shaving or hair removal for one month, people could donate that money to help fight cancer. Nearly 1.5 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year. Officers participating pay a fee of $10.00 for every week they fail to shave or $40.00 for the month. The Coeur d’Alene Police Association will match all funds raised. The money will be donated to a local organization that continually seeks a cure for cancer. The Coeur d’Alene Police Association challenges other law enforcement agencies to join in this worthy cause. Sergeant Christie Wood
