CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION GUIDELINES

The goals of the WACOPS charitable giving program are to improve the image of law enforcement officials and to provide positive benefits to the communities we serve. In order to obtain the maximum benefits from this program, the following protocols will be followed:

1. Any WACOPS member may submit a request for charitable giving to the Executive Director within the established time guidelines. If possible, requests should be in writing with the organization’s mission, contact information, and funding deadline readily available.

2. The Executive Board will consider each request based on the overall, statewide benefit to the WACOPS organization and membership. Preference will be given to charitable activities that have the participation of WACOPS members and events that provide the opportunity for earned media.

3. A majority vote of the Executive Board is needed for approval of a funding request.
