COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO)—Serve and Connect is getting some help in its effort to bridge the gap between law enforcement and communities they serve.

Today the non-profit announced a $10,000 donation to its Compassionate Acts program by Heroes Home Advantage.

Serve and Connect founder Kassy Alia says the donation will go a long way.
