On June 3, Tyler Hess with Country Financial presented the Red Bud Police Department with a $1,500 donation. “Operation Helping Heroes is a company wide initiative at Country Financial to give back to those who give so much for us,” Hess stated. “In light of recent events, I just thought the police department and all of our wonderful officers could put these funds to good use to help keep them safe or for any other support they feel is appropriate.” Pictured at the presentation are Hess and Police Chief John Brittingham.
