Hams for Heroes drive collects over 100 hams for local heroes

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - The “Hams for Heroes” drive encouraged people to donate hams that will go to firefighters, police, veterans, the marines and anyone else who's a hero.

The event is being put on by the "K-9 OPS Foundation,” with all donations going towards these local heroes.

The foundation passed their goal by collecting over 100 hams.

“We wanted to do something for our everyday heroes in Yuma and our whole community and we decided to do this ‘Hams for Heroes’ event to just give back to them for all they do for us,” says the president of the foundation KC Hoffman.
