General Manager Samantha Jeske said that this isn’t a one-time thing with the Menasha Police Department, as the two work one-on-one with plenty of things like this. She emphasized that it feels nice to be able to help the community.
“On top of it bringing new people in to donate, it helps regulars realize what we’re here for,” Jeske said. “A lot of our regulars that tip us say they want to appreciate our team, but we want to let them know we appreciate this other team, and we’re willing to give up our tips to help out.”
The Fox Cities Victim Crisis Response Team is a volunteer-organization designed to help law enforcement and other first responders provide on-scene support to community members in the wake of a crime.
Additionally, the organization provides follow-up support to ensure that victims get as much support as they may need after these traumatizing events.
