At the annual First Responders Appreciation Luncheon Friday, Nov. 3, Evans General Contractors, in partnership with the Bridegan Foundation, provided Bexley Boxes to the Alpharetta Department of Public Safety, Roswell Police Department and Milton Police Department.

Bexley Boxes are refillable kits provided to police stations to better equip them when interacting with traumatized children. Each box contains basic necessities like diapers, wipes, sippy cups, snacks and blankets and comforting items like stuffed animals, books and coloring supplies to calm children in times of crisis.
