The Camden County Police Foundation will accept a $56,930 donation from the Timken Foundation to support the Camden County Police Department K-9 Unit.
“This generous contribution from the Timken Foundation will allow the Camden County Police Department to add a new K-9 to the unit,” said Commissioner Director Louis Cappelli Jr. “Our K-9 teams play a vital role in keeping our community safe, and this donation ensures the continued success of the K9 program.”
The Camden County Police Department currently has eight K-9 teams. These teams are specially trained in patrol operations, narcotics detection, explosive device detection, community engagement, and emotional support.
“Our K-9 unit strengthens public safety, while creating opportunities for our officers to connect with the community,” said Chief Gabriel Rodriguez. “We are grateful to the Timken Foundation for their partnership and support of our mission.”
