Denver Police Activities League (PAL)

$1,091.80

Since 1969, the Denver Police Activities League has worked to involve youth in positive endeavors to build self-esteem and pride. We currently serve nearly 4500 kids annually through athletics, recreation and educational activities. With no government funding, we rely solely on contributions, corporate sponsorships, grants, and in-kind gifts. Our mission to expose youth to experiences beyond their community includes the Pontious Outdoor Program where inner city kids enjoy camping and fishing expeditions and the Overlord History Program, which introduces kids to the sacrifices made by the Greatest Generation and provides several students each year with the opportunity to visit Normandy, France for an immersive educational experience.

  • Mission Statement:

    Denver PAL works to involve at-risk, poverty-level youth in positive endeavors to build self-esteem and pride by exposing them to experiences beyond their community. Denver Police officers act as volunteers so that kids can see them on a human level while having fun together. Our goal: Cops and Kids Creating Community.

“Normandy serves as a symbol of both the cost and the fruition of peace, a place where stained glass gleams in reverence of paratroopers in churches that are scarred with bullet holes and bloodstains, a place where flowers grow in bomb craters strewn across the countryside, a place where children play on beaches that were once blanketed in warfare. And my life has been changed by being able to witness it. I am so crazy thankful for this experience (from Denver PAL).” – Sophie K.
