WCCF  Donors and Police Dept. Collaborate to Improve Service

The Donors of the Washington County Community Foundation helped the Salem Police Department to receive a $146,000.00 grant to update their communication systems.  Through the Foundation’s RISE UP program, James Moore from SPD, reached out to the Foundation for assistance in writing a grant to the Indiana Department of Homeland Security.  The grant application was to add mobile data units to the cruisers as well as installing new software for the Department that allows them to connect to the same system as Washington County EMS, Sheriff’s Department, and intrastate agencies.

The collaboration between the WCCF and the Salem Police Department made it possible to improve our community by keeping our officers and residents safer! 

Donors to the Washington County Community Foundation serve as a beacon of hope, creating a legacy of care and compassion that shines for generations to come.
