McDonald’s Fundraiser – Louisville Metro Police Officer Nickolas Wilt

Thursday, April 27th, the La Grange McDonald’s restaurant will be donating a portion of its sales to support Metro Police Officer Nickolas Wilt and his family.

From 7am-7pm, 20% of the restaurant’s sales will be donated to the Louisville Metro Police Foundation who will be giving all of collected donations to the Wilt family. Representatives from the foundation will also be on site collecting in-person donations.

Officer Wilt, who is from La Grange, is a 26-year-old rookie Louisville police officer. He served as both a firefighter and a dispatcher in Oldham County before joining the Louisville Metro Police Department earlier this month. He was shot while responding to a mass shooting on April 10 at a downtown Louisville bank. He remains hospitalized in critical but stable condition.

Donations are also being accepted online at SaferLouisville.org or on the organization’s Facebook page.
