HOW ARE DONATIONS PUT TO WORK?

Your donation stays local. Donations provide funding for youth & crime prevention messages, safety events, and crime prevention classes taught by police officers in the community and schools including DARE and Officer Friendly. Donations help fund Bike Rodeos, Police Citizen Academy’s, National Night Out, Night to Unite, Drug Takeback Programs and many other initiatives within the Crime Prevention Fund scope of our Vision, Mission and Philosophy.
