Parkville Police Community Assistance Fund

11/04/2015 By Content Manager

In 2010, a fund was created by members of the Parkville Police Department and one donor to assist children and families in need during the Christmas season. As a result of this initiative the first “Shop with a Cop” was held in December. The children and families were identified by the Park Hill School District and through contacts with members of the police department.

The initiative has continued with great success and continues to grow with citizen participation and increased donations yearly.  While the main benefactor of the fund is the “Shop with a Cop” program, the fund is intended for other assistance programs similar in nature at the discretion of the Chief of Police.

Other assistance programs have included:

  • Back to School Program before the school season begins – Check out this video from the 1st annual event held in July 2016 https://youtu.be/hoXud1UX-Ks
  • Christmas luncheon for senior citizens at Park Village

FUND GOALS

  • Promote good community relations between members of the Parkville Police Department and citizens in the Parkville area.
  • Provide assistance to citizens at a time of need. Assistance may include, but not be limited to, the provision of goods and services but will not include cash.
    • The primary objective is to fund the “Shop with a Cop” program that provides gifts to children and families in need during the Christmas season.
    • Other assistance programs similar in nature to “Shop with a Cop” may be implemented at the discretion of the Chief of Police.
  • Allow department members and other citizen volunteers an opportunity to give back to the community.
