On Friday, March 1, 2019 we will host our 21st Annual Lights & Sirens Award & Recognition Dinner at the San Mateo County Event Center. This event includes approximately 400 guests, reception/dinner, live & silent auctions, award & recognition ceremony, entertainment and heartfelt video showcasing PAL's accomplishments over the past year. Every dollar raised will support purposeful, preventative, and educational youth programs from no cost to a minimal fee to our under-served, under-resourced and at-risk PAL members, ages 5-18. 

 Since 1997, San Mateo Police Activities League has created positive change to the lives of thousands of youth in our community!  Every year, we provide hundreds of opportunities for kids. Our programs are designed to Build the Bond Between Cops & Kids, keep our community safe, and help guide our youth towards a positive path in life.  PAL acts as a trusted lifeline of resources and support to its kids, and their families; offering assistance any way we can. Our focus is to serve those kids most vulnerable to outside negative influences and in most need of our assistance to stay away from drugs, gangs, violence and other troubled behaviors.

You will be recognized in the evening program, on-site event signage and on our website event page.  As well, we will provide a donation receipt letter with the Tax ID number for your records.

Every dollar San Mateo PAL raises enables us to make a brighter future for our PAL kids. The Lights & Sirens Dinner is PAL’s largest fundraiser of the year, helping us raise the necessary funds to fulfill our mission, and we hope you will feel inspired to support us and our Kids!  Thank you for your consideration.
