Completed Foundation Grants
Police Golf Car - FUNDED !
With Community Outreach in mind, Chief Smith made a request of the Police Foundation in February to fund the purchase of a Police Golf Car.

Police All Terrain Vehicle - FUNDED !
In order to properly patrol the beach front of Juno Beach, the Police Department needed a new All Terrain Vehicle.
In his grant request he cited a need to protect both the beach and those individuals who utilize the beach, but also the Marine Life Center and the Pier that both have access from the beach.Read more here!
Police Trauma Kits - FUNDED !
The second Grant Request from the Juno Beach Police Department was for the purchase of Trauma Kits for our police officers/police vehicles.
As was mentioned with regard to the AED's, our police officers are often on scene at traumatic incidents several minutes before Fire-Rescue. It's important therefore that our officers have the medical supplies needed to initially treat everything from gunshot and stabbing wounds, to minor cuts and abrasions. Read more here!
External Defibrillators
- FUNDED !
Soon after the formation of the Police Foundation, we received a grant request from the Police Department to help fund AED’s for each of the Town’s police cars.
The Police Department already had AED’s in their patrol vehicles but those units were donated by Palm Beach County Fire Rescue over ten years ago. The technology was old and the batteries, as well as some of the units themselves, were starting to fail. Read more here!
Police Drone - FUNDED !
As technology advances, it typically does so in all areas of life - including of course Law Enforcement. Among one of the most recent advances is the use of small unmanned aerial vehicles, referred to as sUAV's - or more commonly Police Drones.
In January of 2020 Chief Smith came to the Police Foundation with a request. Read more here!
Firearms Training Simulator - FUNDED !
The Juno Beach Police Department asked the Foundation to purchase a Firearms Training Simulator to be use to assist in the training our police officers in the most dangerous part of their job.
CPR Training Mannequins - FUNDED !
The Juno Beach Police Department asked the Foundation to purchase CPR Mannequins to be use to train our police officers and interested members of the community.
Our police officers are often on scene at cardiac incidents several minutes before Fire-Rescue. Therefore it is important that our officers have the medical training needed to immediately deal with the situation. Read more here!
Police Ballistic Helmets - FUNDED !
Our most recent Grant Request from the Juno Beach Police Department was for the purchase of ballistic helmets for our police officers.
Juno Beach police officers are currently equipped with active shooter ballistic vests that help mitigate high powered rifle shots. But surveys and interviews with convicted felons show that cop-killers are aware of that and are now more focused on head-shots. Read more here!
