Help Us Support the Westport Police K9 Unit!

Relying solely on public contributions, the K9 Unit is holding a fundraiser to help raise money for the purchase of two new specially equipped vehicles and the acquisition and training of new K9 officers. All of us here at Maritime Chevrolet are proud to support the Westport Police K9 Unit and their fundraising goal! Contributions to the campaign, with a targeted goal of $58,000, can be made through the dedicated gofundme page.

For those who may not be familiar, the Westport K-9 unit relies entirely on the generosity of public donations. Your invaluable support plays a crucial role in enabling them to train, care for, and enhance the safety of our community through the dedicated presence of the K-9 unit in the Town of Westport. Each K-9 serves the town diligently for a span of 7-10 years, becoming an integral part of both the team and their lives. As these devoted K-9 officers approach retirement age, it becomes imperative for Westport Police to plan for their successors, ensuring a seamless continuation of their efforts to keep Westport safe.

As we embark on the journey of 2024, the K9 unit is undergoing significant upgrades. Urgently, they are in need of new vehicles for two of our K-9 Officers, and one of the cherished service K-9s is scheduled to retire in December 2024. Through this fundraising initiative, the primary goal is to secure the necessary funds to cover the costs of acquiring the vehicles and implementing a comprehensive training program for Atlas’s successor.
