From running with the Flame of Hope to serving our community at Tip-A-Cop, we had an amazing time supporting Special Olympics Northern California!

Together, both events have helped raise over $3,000 for Special Olympics athletes and programs, and we couldn’t have done it without the support of our community!

Check out the video for some highlights from both events! Donations are still open, and you can find the link in our bio under “Special Olympics Torch Run.”

On Thursday, April 30th, we had the honor of welcoming Law Enforcement United (LEU) to the Hayward Police Department as part of their West Coast Long Ride.

This meaningful journey brings together law enforcement personnel, survivors, and supporters to honor officers who lost their lives in the line of duty, while recognizing the families and loved ones they leave behind.

Spanning nearly 800 miles across California with stops at 62 law enforcement agencies, each moment of the ride serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made in service to others.

We are grateful to have been a part of this tribute and to stand alongside those who continue to carry their legacy forward.

As we wrap up Telecommunications Week, we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible individuals behind the scenes who keep our community safe every day.

Our dispatchers are the calm in the chaos, answering critical calls, coordinating emergency responses, and providing reassurance in life’s most urgent moments.

Thank you to all of our dispatchers for being the first first responders. We appreciate you this week and always.

A special congratulations to Monica Supedbia, Hayward Public Safety Communications Professional (Dispatcher) of the Year. Your excellence and commitment truly set the standard, and we are grateful for all that you do.
