My name is Jeffrey Ehasz and I am a former Shaker Heights, Ohio Law Enforcement Officer and retired Trainer at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Georgia.

I am writing on behalf of the Ohio Small Police Department Association (OSPDA). The OSPDA is a 501(c) (3) Non Profit. Our organization is dedicated to supporting the brave men and women who serve in small police departments; 40 officers or less across Ohio. These officers work tirelessly to keep our communities safe, often with limited resources.

Many of Ohio’s small police departments face unique challenges, including budget constraints, outdated equipment, and insufficient training opportunities. Despite these hurdles, our officers remain committed to their duty to protect and serve. At OSPDA, we strive to provide these departments with the resources they need to perform their jobs effectively and safely.

To continue our mission, we are launching a fundraising campaign and humbly ask for your support. Your generous contribution will go directly toward:

Providing essential equipment: Ensuring our officers have access to modern, reliable tools to perform their duties safely.
Training programs: Offering specialized cost effective training to enhance the skills and knowledge of our officers.
Community outreach: Strengthening the relationship between police departments and the communities they serve through outreach programs and initiatives.
Representation: Voice for small police departments with the State of Ohio Attorney General's Office.

Every dollar raised will have a direct impact on the safety and well-being of both our officers and the communities they protect. We are deeply grateful for any support you can provide, whether it’s a financial donation or helping to spread the word about our cause.

Additionally, through our partnership with the Folds of Honor I will donate a portion of all fundraising monies to help fund scholarships for fallen and disabled First Responder families.

I have formed 3 levels of Business Partnerships and the benefits (Silver 300.00, Gold 500.00, and Corporate 1,000.00) the benefit breakdowns can be found below.

Please consider becoming a Business Partner and making a tax-deductible donation to the Ohio Small Police Department Association. Donations can be made online at www.ohiosmallpolicedepartment.org or by mailing a check to 78 Ravenna Street, Hudson, Ohio 44236. If you have any questions or would like more information about our organization, please do not hesitate to contact us at 912.227.4440 or jehasz@ospda.org.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Together, we can make a meaningful difference for the small police departments that are the backbone of our communities.
