Police Fund

The Police Protective Fund called today asking for a donation. They asked for my credit card number, which I declined to give. I asked if they had a number I could call back. At first they said no, then called me back and gave me the number 727-863-8200. I expected to call back and donate via credit card. However, a quick Google search revealed that many regard them as a scam, partly because so little of their funds go to actual benefits, and partly because of aggressive tactics. See charitynavigator.com and info re court decision barring them from soliciting in Missouri. I also called the Fairfax County Police Association. The person answering the phone had not heard of the Police Protective Fund. I didn't call back to donate.
