One of the great outcomes of our Sunset & W**e event was the funding of a new K9 vehicle for the Galveston Police Department!

Thanks to the generosity of several donors who came together to support this project, the Galveston Community Police Foundation is proud to help make this investment possible. It’s a great example of what can happen when our community comes together to support the officers who serve us every day.

A K9 team is an important part of the department, helping keep officers safe, protect the community, and respond to situations where these specially trained teams make a real difference.

We’re so grateful to everyone who contributed to making this happen. Your support helps the Galveston Police Department continue doing the important work they do for our island community.

Thanks to the generosity of Mary & Gordon Morse and Cathy Abernathy, another public safety dry suit for the Galveston Police Department's dive team has been funded!

This isn't just another piece of equipment. A dry suit helps divers safely operate in cold, contaminated, and hazardous water during rescue missions, evidence recovery, and other critical incidents. It keeps them protected so they can focus on the job at hand.

This is exactly what the Foundation was created to do—provide equipment and resources that help our officers do their jobs safely and effectively when those needs fall outside the city's budget.

On September 24th, members of the Galveston community gathered at "Sunset and W**e", a fundraising event to support the Galveston Police Department! The night was a resounding success (more on that to come) and a testament to what can happen when individuals recognize that community safety starts with all of us.

A big thank you to Lee and Laura Slataper for opening their home to us and hosting such a fabulous event, and to Concetta and her team for putting together such an amazing spread!

It was great to see officers from the Galveston Police Department’s Drone Unit and Marine Unit spending time with community members. Building these connections is what it’s all about!

The Galveston Community Police Foundation is proud to support the Galveston Police Department and the officers who serve our community. We’re grateful to everyone who came out, showed their support, and helped make this event such a success.

It's World Mental Health Day.

Today, we recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health — for everyone, including the men and women who serve our community in law enforcement.

Police officers often face high-stress situations and carry the weight of what they see and experience. Supporting their mental well-being is critical not only for them, but for the safety and health of our whole community.

The Galveston Community Police Foundation is proud to stand behind initiatives that strengthen officer wellness, provide resources for stress management, and encourage open conversations about mental health. Support us while we support them. galvestoncpf.org

Together, we can break the stigma and ensure that those who protect us are also supported.

Standing together on the shores of Galveston, these officers represent the dedication, professionalism, and commitment it takes to serve our community.

Every day, they answer the call—protecting our residents, keeping our streets safe, and being there when we need them.

Sometimes protecting the community means simply being there.

When roads get busy and conditions become dangerous, Galveston officers' step in to protect drivers, manage traffic, and keep everyone moving safely.

They’re out there so you can get home safely.

The Galveston Community Police Foundation exists so that they can get home safely. We support our police officers so that they can keep our community safe. galvestoncpf.org
