The Arlington Police Foundation's goal is to provide sustaining support for extra equipment, special projects, and ongoing programs particularly those that promote positive interaction between youth and police.

Our Needs
We are so excited to be raising money to expand the Drones as First Responders (DFR) program within the Arlington Police Department! Your donation will directly support the expansion of the DFR program into currently uncovered, high-priority areas by enabling the purchase and deployment of six additional drone units at strategic locations. This will increase the program's coverage, improve operational efficiency, and enhance response capability across the city.
What does this mean for our community? Faster emergency response times, increased officer and community safety, greater potential for de-escalation, and improved outcomes in high-risk incidents. This aligns with the Arlington Police Foundation's mission of creating a safer city.
