Message from the Chairperson
Throughout the year, the DART Police Department answers a great number of calls on behalf of the communities we serve. We take pride in providing a wide variety of services designed to assist and service residents in the DART service areas. As such, the DART Police Department has developed a Non-Profit Program to serve the community during Christmas named “Santa Cops”.
This program was implemented to assist families that are considered to be in the lower economical social status. For almost 20 years, the Santa Cop program has experienced great success providing these families with food and children with toys, with hopes of insuring all families are able to enjoy a warm holiday season. This year, it is our aim to increase our assistance throughout the various communities. Our expansion goals are only possible with your help; as such, we are strongly soliciting your involvement.
If you are willing to help, we are seeking monetary donations, wrapped and/or unwrapped toys, as well as non-perishable food items. If possible, you can donate at the link listed below or you can deliver your donation to:
DART Police Headquarters
2111 South Corinth Street Road
Dallas, Texas 75203
Lastly, we have several voluntary events throughout the year. Please visit the events page on our website to better determine when, where, and how you can best contribute to our community service initiatives.
“Blessed are those who bless others."
