Mixed Doubles Tournament

Description

This fundraiser tournament will be supporting the Newport News Police Foundation. The Newport News Police Foundation's mission is to provide critical resource to the Newport News Police Department that allows the Department to acquire new technologies and equipment, provide programs for young people, and community outreach, and to enhance Department morale and education, all of which make Newport News a safer place to live, work, and play, and raise a family.

All proceeds raised will stay local and support the Newport News Police Department and the community.

NNPF sponsors many youth programs - this summer we are hosting Ladies First, Camp Community Connection, and Drone Camp. Each of these camps allow the youth to connect with our Police Department personnel, working on self-esteem issues, conflict resolution, leadership, and learning about the Drone unit.

Let us not forget our retired K9s - When the K9s retire from the department the handler is solely responsible for all vet bills. With your support it allows NNPF to provide relief to the vet bills for handler.
