BBB WISE GIVING ALLIANCE PROGRAM

The NPDF Executive Board had decided to cease its participation with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), Wise Giving Alliance since much of the information relating to its operation and finances are posted on its official website.

Over the years, the NPDF has cooperated fully with the BBB Wise Giving Program and found to be in compliance with all of their standards for the exception of its use of professional fundraising companies. The NPDF utilizes professional fundraising companies since its Executive Board are composed of all volunteers and lack the resources and personnel to conduct full time professional fundraising activities.

Any donor who has been solicited by a professional fundraiser and wishes that 100% of the donation goes to the NPDF is recommended to forward that tax deductible donation to the National Police Defense Foundation, Post Office Box 318, Englishtown, New Jersey 07726 or pledge a donation by calling 888-SAFE COP.
