Acushnet PD: Please Donate to Charities, not PD

Each year during the Holiday Season, the Acushnet Police Depart­ment receives generous donations of food and goodies from our amazing citizens.  

Unfortunately this year, due to the uptick in COVID-19 cases, The APD will not be able to accept these kind gestures. 

As always, we appreciate your support, but ask that in lieu of food donations to our family, please make a donation to a local family in need and/or a local charity. We thank you for your continued support!  

(See page 10 for information on donating to the local food pantry.)
