COMMUNITY WATCH PROGRAM

ANNOUNCING A $15,000 DONATION MATCH OFFER!!!

During the month of August, one of our Moraga families, who wishes to remain anonymous, has generously offered to match all Campaign donations--up to $15,000!!
With their generosity--and with your contributions--we can quickly reach our $60,000 Campaign goal, allowing the Moraga Police Department to begin installing the license-plate recognition video cameras that are so vital to helping to protect the security of our community. So far, we’re just over half way there.
So, if you’ve been planning to, but haven’t yet donated, now is certainly a great time to take action. Remember, every dollar you donate gets automatically doubled!

Here’s how to contribute:
If donating by credit card, go to www.moragacommunityfoundation.org. Click on “Donate Now”, fill in the information fields, and be sure in the “Donate To” box to select “Community Watch”.
By check, mail it to the Moraga Community Foundation, 1480 Moraga Road, Suite C-191, Moraga, CA 94556. Be sure to note “Community Watch” on the check’s memo line.

The Moraga Community Foundation is a 501.c3 charitable organization.
