Austin Police Chief Brian Manley and Austin Fire Chief Rhoda Mae Kerr will represent their departments in the challenge.

“We are grateful that our business community has committed to helping thousands of families in need this holiday season,” APD Police Chief Brian Manley said. “The generosity and donations that we have received at Austin Police Operation Blue Santa has been overwhelming and we are truly honored to serve such a caring community. APD would like to extend a special thanks to RetailMeNot for hosting this shopping spree.”
