WAUWATOSA, Wis. (CBS 58) -- A local business is stepping up to help the families of fallen officers.
Ultimate Confections in Wauwatosa is selling chocolate badges with proceeds going to a fund called Milwaukee Police Association Fallen Heroes, Inc.
The money is used to help pay for funerals and family needs when an officer dies.
Owner Patrick Murphy says it's a small way to give back to police families.
"We're happy to help, we really back the police officers; they don't hear that enough," Patrick Murphy, owner of Ultimate Confections said. "We're happy to do it and this is the little part we can do to be helpful."
Each cookie costs $2. The labor and chocolate are donated by the company.
