Angel Fund

What is the Angel Fund?

CPAAAS members are allowed to attend any Citizens Police Academy classes if they are looking for a refresher, want to learn more about a specific topic, or just want to meet new graduates.

On graduation day, CPAAAS gives a packet of materials to each graduate that includes information on CPAAAS.


Angel Fund Criteria

CPAAAS Board members met at a Closed Board meeting on 11/17/2001 to address issues regarding the Angel Fund. 

The Board reviewed the initial intent of the fund, the purpose of CPAAAS, the problems brought up regarding a past funding, and concerns over future funding from the Angel Fund.

As the funds continue to grow, it is more important that guidelines be put in place. It was decided that specific criteria be written and followed in the future as to the usage of the Angel Fund. The following criteria was written by the Board and voted on to be put in place effective immediately.

  1. Funds should benefit a) Schaumburg Police Department as a whole, b) a significant need or cause with the Village of Schaumburg.

  2. Suggestions that meet the above criteria must be submitted in writing to the Board for consideration for funding.

  3. Board members will vote on fund usage at an Open Board Meeting. Majority vote of the Board Members applies.

  4. If an emergency cause presents itself, then an emergency Closed Board Meeting will be called to address the issue.

  5. Fund will continue to accumulate until a suitable cause is found to fund.
