JCU Police Department

Law enforcement is a profession that carries real risks, which is why every officer in the John Carroll University Police Department wears a ballistic vest while on duty—standard protection for departments across the country. To ensure maximum safety, each vest is individually fitted and replaced every five years. These lifesaving vests cost approximately $2,000–$2,500 each and are an essential investment in officer protection.

While the university funds this critical equipment, your Day of Giving gift can help offset the cost of ballistic vests and other vital safety resources. Your support is a meaningful way to stand behind the dedicated officers who safeguard our campus community every day. Thank you for considering a gift and for supporting their mission.

Onward On!
