Police Foundation of Kansas City – A Call for Backup

The third annual A Call for Backup, a benefit for the Police Foundation of Kansas City, will be held on February 24th at the Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown. Christy and Bill Gautreaux will serve as the honorary chairmen, and Dayton Moore will be the keynote speaker. The Police Foundation’s mission is to raise funds for equipment that reduces crime but could not be obtained otherwise by the Department within its existing budget.
