We donated $5000.00 to the Dunwoody Police Foundation to help provide training, equipment, aid to injured officers and bereaved families. For example, RCD contributed $5000 to the general funds of which $48000 were used to purchase the LifeVac, choking rescue device, which saved the lives of a 5-year-old child, a toddler. Major Lynn Duetsch, an honorary RCD member commented when you save one life, you save the world. Contribution have also enabled the purchase and training of a police dog, and (Flock safe)license plate readers. Although the (29) police are the direct beneficiaries, the entire Dunwoody Community of over 51,000 benefits by having the service of well equipment law enforcement. Several Dunwoody Rotarians attended the Dunwoody Police Citizen Academy which is a 3 hour 13-week course. Some of these volunteers will help monitor the CCTV in headquarters and ride along patrols
