Wreath Goal Met!
Thanks to everyone who supported us in our fund-raising effort toward purchasing a memorial wreath for the National Police Week Memorial. We have already met our $75 goal, and so we have raised our goal to $100 to possibly purchase a larger wreath or (should we not make that) fund future projects.
Please keep giving. Every dollar you send to NPWA is put towards our philanthropic projects, so every penny counts!
