City employees will support Operation Holiday with “No Shave November”

The Derby Police Department, along with other city employees, will participate in “No Shave November” to raise funds for Derby Operation Holiday.

In order to sport a full beard from Nov. 7 to Dec. 7, city employees will need to donate $20 each to Operation Holiday, which provides food and toys to those in need within the Derby Public Schools district.

Aside from forgoing shaving, all police officers and other city employees who pay the donation will be able to wear a summer uniform, and civilian employees will be able to wear jeans every day.
