Friends of Safety Town
In 2012, the Greensboro Police Foundation was established by a group of civic and business leaders with the goal of supporting the Greensboro Police Department in three focus areas: officer recognition and well-being; cutting-edge training, equipment, and technology; and community engagement. Our projects include the purchase of 125 body-worn cameras, making Greensboro the first major US city to outfit its entire patrol force with body cameras. We also helped to construct a second site of Safety Town at Barber Park in Greensboro, increasing access to this wonderful safety education program for young children. We believe that through advocacy for our police department, we can help keep Greensboro safe for all people. If you value this work, we hope that you will demonstrate your support by participating in our newest fundraising campaign, Friends of Safety Town.
With your 100% tax-deductible gift of $500 to the Greensboro Police Foundation, you can become a Friend of Safety Town, and your name or business name will be permanently displayed on the Founders’ Monument at Safety Town at Barber Park.
The pursuit of our mission relies on our outstanding community of donors. Thank you so much for your consideration of our newest fundraising campaign.
*Please note that contributions made by Friends of Safety Town are added to the foundation’s general program fund and are not restricted to Safety Town initiatives.
