It's prom season, and tickets aren't cheap. But Oceanside’s police department surprised a couple of high school students by covering the costs.

“I didn't expect this, not at all — this is a blessing, I’m so grateful for this,” Ingram said.

Ingram said he wasn't sure if he’d be going to his senior prom due to the cost, “I didn't have the money at first but now I do. I really am happy for this.” School Officer Daniels said he hears a lot about the kinds of stresses students are carrying, “I’m fortunate enough that they’re comfortable to tell me things like that. It's tough. They go through a lot, but these kids are tough."

Students were awarded $250 each for prom expenses from Oceanside Police Department’s Random Acts of Kindness Project fund.
