Officers from the St. Louis County Police Department recently participated in a Cars 4 Kids event with Gapsch’s CARSTAR Collision Center in Green Park.

Gapsch received two wrecked cars from an insurance company and repaired them, according to a news release.

Gapsch then partnered with Cars 4 Kids, which selected two families who have a child suffering from cancer to receive the cars. Both recipient families were on hand to unwrap the cars and receive other gifts from businesses in the community, the released stated.
