Drone Technology is advancing rapidly with new products and services being introduced regularly. As the owner of a drone company, Airborne Works, we see this industry from the inside looking out and fully recognize the value that drone technology brings to public safety. The National Public Safety Drone Donation Program, NPS-DDP.org was founded as a result of recognizing, #1 the need for this technology, #2 the shortfall in funding of this technology for many departments across the country. The mission established by our distinguished Board of Directors for NPS-DDP echoes this belief in our foundation statement with the vision and determination to help place “Eyes in the sky for every department in need “ ™️ NPS-DDP understands that need and every day that passes for public safety departments without earmarked funding for the implementation of UAV /UAS technology, and the communities they serve, that both lives and property could be saved. As we develop relationships within the UAV industry we strive to attract key supporting partnership arrangements with the growing list of industry leaders, including drone manufacturers, service providers, media providers, grant writers, and the monetary donations from individuals and corporations. This then allows us to outreach with brands that share our vision in support of Public Safety and jointly spread our message to make a difference in so many lives, and doing so one donation at a time. Our mandate as a foundation is to seek public, corporate, and Industry support, while educating the general public, as well as municipalities, of the absolute importance of placing these tools in the hands of those that need them most to enhance the skillset of the brave men and women within all public safety agencies across the globe. Our main focus will continue to be on the support of the many smaller underfunded volunteer departments across the country that don't have access to the needed funding for support.
