You might be arrested for looking this good with our new “gold” coloured Aviators that are hitting the streets on August 9th. We are commemorating our fifth year of the Kops’ Shades for Kids campaign with the change of our iconic VPD Aviators that help raise funds for programs that keep kids engaged, active, and away from high risk activities.
Originally introduced in the summer of 2013, the campaign has raised over a half million dollars to-date towards programs for Vancouver Police crime prevention projects and early intervention community outreach programs.
The VPD Aviators have been a great tool for the Foundation to introduce new community partners to our work in the community. The campaign also seeks to strengthen the link between the Vancouver Police Department (VPD) and the community it serves.
Close Look at the new “Gold” Aviators
The VPD Aviators are UV400 and now comes with a carrying case and a police themed cleaning cloth.
The VPD Aviator Sunglasses will be sold for $25 each on the Vancouver Police Foundation website.
Warning; wearing sunglasses supports the cops, but it doesn’t make you one. Get your police glasses and help us build a safer community.
The Vancouver Police Foundation helps advance initiatives in five key areas that strengthen community connections, support youth, and help keep Vancouver safe: Community Engagement Grants, VPD Cadets, the VPD K9 Unit & Police Service Dogs, the VPD Mounted Unit, and Special Projects, Programs & Equipment.
