Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals, Crime & Law, Crime & Legal-Related
Mission: Stacey Hillman started Pennies to Protect Police Dogs so that every Police Dog could be as protected as his human partner. The Police Dogs are a very important family member to the departments and the handlers. A bond between the handler and his Police Dog is as strong as the bond between a mother and a child. These courageous canines have just as dangerous of a job as his human partner. He deserves to be protected also. When a Police Dog is killed the whole community shares the pain and sorrow of losing a hero. Each Point Blank level 11A bulletproof and stab resistant K-9 vests costs about $1000.00. Point Blank does however give Stacey a generous discount on them. For most departments there is just not enough money in the budget for these well needed K-9 vests. Through community awareness and involvement one day Stacey's goal of a bulletproof vest for every Police Patrol Dog will be a reality.
