Civic Organizations |
|
Public-private cooperation in Grapevine flourishes because of civic pride. Many local fraternal organizations and civic clubs are truly dedicated to helping others. There always seems to be a benevolent reason for their existence.
It's been said that the best reason for living in Grapevine is the people. And that may be true. They are serving meals to the elderly, taking care of families in need, sharing resources, visiting military personnel at the DFW Airport, and working festival booths for good causes, just to name a few... |

| Seniors And Law Enforcement Together (S.A.L.T.) |
|
The Grapevine Police Dept. participates with a non-profit organization known as S.A.L.T. (Seniors And Law Enforcement Together)
The S.A.L.T. Council's goal is to reduce the criminal victimization of older persons. It serves all seniors in Tarrant County. One of their fund raising vehicles is cell phone recycling. They collect old cell phones and send them to a recycling company for cash. That money is used to fund different programs that benefit Tarrant County Senior Citizens. The S.A.L.T. Council also distributes refurbished cell phones to Senior Citizens as 911 emergency phones.
If you have any old cell phones around that you'd like to donate please contact me and I'll make arrangements to pick them up. The donation can just be the phone, a battery or the charger. The recycling company will take them all.
Donations are accepted year round.
