At 828 Bail Bonds, we believe our work goes far beyond posting bail. We are committed to giving back to the communities we serve across Western North Carolina and beyond. That’s why we were honored to be a Gold Sponsor of the North Carolina State Highway Patrol’s Cops on Top fundraiser supporting Special Olympics North Carolina.

What Is Cops on Top North Carolina?

The Cops on Top program is a unique and highly visible fundraiser where law enforcement officers climb onto the rooftops of local businesses to raise awareness and collect donations for Special Olympics athletes. Members of the North Carolina Highway Patrol and other law enforcement agencies volunteered their time, often spending hours on rooftops at stores like Belk and Walmart, to engage the community and spotlight the mission of Special Olympics NC.

This event is part of the larger Law Enforcement Torch Run (LETR), which helps fund year-round training and competition opportunities for athletes with intellectual disabilities.


Recent Event in Haywood County

Most recently, Cops on Top came to Haywood County on September 5, 2025. Troopers and volunteers spent the day on the rooftop of Belk in Waynesville, cheering on shoppers, collecting donations, and spreading the message of inclusion.

It was incredible to see the local community rally together in support of Special Olympics NC athletes. Events like this remind us that even small towns can make a big difference when people unite behind a powerful cause.

Why We Support Special Olympics NC

Just as bail bondsmen provide second chances by helping people return to their families and jobs while awaiting trial, Special Olympics NC provides life-changing opportunities for athletes to discover their strengths, build confidence, and achieve their goals. Supporting this cause aligns with our mission of accountability, opportunity, and hope.
