Why It Matters

The war we fight as Guardian Angels trying to prevent crime is one we wage on multiple levels. And while we are honest in regards to the realities we face we also revel in every victory we can achieve. It motivates us and inspires us to carry on. We can not end crime all on our own, but with the support of the communities we serve, we are making a positive difference each and every day. Each potential crime we prevent improves life for all of us. Every mugging, robbery, rape, or murder we help stop is one more person and one more family that is spared the trauma that could have happened. Every time a senior is out for a walk and sees the Red Beret volunteers and feels a little safer we, the concerned citizens win a little victory. Each boy or girl that comes through our youth program doors is a another chance for a child to reach his or her own potential and for a neighborhood to keep another future contributor to society from falling victim to the streets.

We promise to continue to do our part, like we have for all these years. All we ask of you is simply that if you support our goals, if you agree with our efforts and if you can, then please contribute. Direct support from members of our community’s will allow us to maintain and increase our safety patrols making sure they are always properly equipped and trained to respond to the many situations they face on the streets. And while the safety patrols are out there doing their job your contribution will also allow us to serve the children through our youth outreach and mentoring programs. These programs may not get the press attention like the patrols however a firsthand look at them shows you what a direct and lasting impact they have. We have done much over the years with very little. We promise to put every gift we are fortunate enough to receive to good use and to make continue to make a difference.
