The Safety Village of Windsor has received a boost for its campaign to upgrade its Safe Kids classrooms.

The LaSalle Police Youth Foundation has donated $2,500, to enhance lighting in the rooms used by various first-responder agencies for specialized training. The Safety Village had set a $5,000 goal.
