On June 19, 1865, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued, enslaved people in Texas were finally informed of their freedom. This historic day has become a symbol of freedom, resilience, and hope.

The City of Kaufman joins communities across the country in recognizing this important day and celebrating the values of freedom, unity, and progress that continue to shape our nation.

In observance of Juneteenth, City offices will be closed today. Emergency services will remain available to serve the community.

🍋💛 Our First Lemonade Stand Fundraiser Kiddo 💛🍋

Today we had the joy of visiting Bella and her lemonade stand. She greeted us with the sweetest wave, the biggest smile, and some absolutely delicious lemonade!

She may be little, but don't let her size fool you. Her heart is HUGE. ❤️ She chose to spend her time helping other children, and that kind of kindness is something worth celebrating.

Thank you for showing us that you are never too young to make an impact.

Way to go, Bella! 🍋✨

🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨
The Kaufman Police Department wants to remind our community, especially our elderly residents, to be cautious of phone scams involving threats and demands for money.
Scammers may call pretending to be law enforcement or government officials and claim that you or a family member will be arrested unless money is sent immediately. They may ask for payment through gift cards, wire transfers, cash apps, or cryptocurrency.
⚠️ Please remember:
• Law enforcement will NEVER demand immediate payment over the phone.
• Do NOT send money to anyone you do not know or trust.
• Do NOT give out personal or banking information.
• Hang up and verify the information before taking any action.
If you receive one of these calls and are unsure if it is legitimate, please contact the Police Department directly. We are here to help answer questions and protect our community.
📞 If in doubt, call us first, do NOT send money or give personal or banking information. Please call our non-emergency line: 972-932-3094
Please share this post to help protect your family, friends, and neighbors.
