Award nominees and winners are selected by the Dallas Police Department’s Meritorious Conduct Board and presented their award by the Dallas Police Chief.

As we celebrate our 43rd year, we invite you to show your gratitude to the men and women of DPD who so nobly serve by committing a gift donation for this year’s award winners, which is the official awards ceremony for the Dallas Police Department. Gifts will be used as gifts for officers and employees receiving awards. For a complete list of awards given annually, please visit friendsofthedallaspolice.org

Under Armour&reg; is one of the world's most technical performance apparel, footwear, and accessories brands.
Founded in 1996 by former University of Maryland football player Kevin Plank, Under Armour&reg; is the originator of performance apparel--gear engineered to keep athletes cool, dry, and light as they power through a game, practice, or workout.
From their beginning to today, Under Armour's mission has remained the same: make all athletes better through passion, design, and the relentless pursuit of innovation.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because sports are an excellent way for children (or adults) to blow off steam while grieving, especially during stressful times. Sports commitments, gear, tournament fees - all of it - can be an enormous resource suck for families. Almost magically, children seem to grow out of their sports clothing. This gift provides a family struggling financially with the means to facilitate positive coping mechanisms for the little ones.
What To Express In Your Card: Sports are so great for your children during this time. They may enjoy picking out something new for their sporting needs. I hope this helps.

Why We Love This Gift: An excellent gift for anyone. It can be especially helpful for people who may be living away from home for a time as a result of a medical situation because they are caring for a sick relative, or for kids in a recent divorce where they are now in a two-household family. Macy's has clothes for all ages, so it is a good place to go and grab forgotten necessary items.
What To Express In Your Card:  I know you have a lot going on. I wasn't sure how I could help but I wanted to make sure you had easy and convenient access to some fresh clothes, anyway. I am sending you love.

Every season starts at Dick's Sporting Goods! With the best collection of sporting goods, apparel, and footwear, Dick's Sporting Goods includes all of your indoor or outdoor sporting needs.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because sports are an excellent way for children (or adults) to blow off steam while grieving, especially during stressful times. Sports commitments, gear, tournament fees - all of it - can be an enormous resource suck for families. Cleats purchased in the fall no longer fit in the spring. This gift provides a family struggling financially with the means to facilitate positive coping mechanisms for the little ones.
What To Express In Your Card: Sports are so great for your children during this time. I know how quickly you need new sports equipment for their upcoming season. I hope this helps.

Cabela's is the one-stop-shop for outstanding outdoor gear. Send your favorite outdoors person some new gear.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it enables recipients to enjoy the great outdoors. Give InKind expert military contributors have suggested that outdoor gear can help returning servicemen and women cope with post-traumatic stress. (Fly fishing is a particular favorite). For newly sober people, outside activities retrain neurological response to stimuli. Getting outside and being physical is helpful to supporting long term recovery. For those recuperating from illness or surgery, exercise can help a lot.
What To Express in Your Card: I am thinking of you.

The ultimate in luxury clothes that are also high quality. Beautiful.
Why We Love This Gift: Nordstrom's is old-style elegant department store shopping at your doorstep (with an actually easy exchange policy). It is a splurge. It is great for anyone. It is especially great in certain situations, including breast cancer and surgery. Nordstrom also has an excellent breast prosthesis fitting program. Help a woman you love post-operatively. When divorce is recent, money tends to be short even while divorce necessitates a new wardrobe - for work, or for life.
What To Express in Your Card: I am here with you. I thought you might need something new. I can come shopping with you if you are up for the company.

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo

Give the gift of doing with a Home Depot Gift Card. They are ideal for any occasion.
For those who have lost homes because of natural disasters or an elderly person you love in need of a home renovation (a ramp), a Home Depot Gift Card says a great deal. You can use it to budget project expenses and easily track your purchases online.
Why We Love This Gift: Houses are always in need of a little repair. This is an excellent gift for returning servicemen and women as home repairs can be necessary and/or therapeutic to varying degrees. For people trying to extend the independent living of their aging loved one, little things around the house make a difference. Things like rails near the toilet, a ramp, and similar house renovations can make a big difference. People recovering from stroke often need bathrooms and stairs to be retrofitted to help them in their long-term recovery or rehabilitation. For a family with a newly-mobile toddler, installing a gate or bolting a bookshelf to the wall are both helpful beyond measure. The possibilities are endless.
What To Express in Your Card: How can I be most helpful?

ULTA Beauty is the largest beauty retailer in the United States and the premier beauty destination for makeup, fragrance, skin, hair care products, and salon services.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers an indulgence. It pampers those who need a little extra love and attention. When a person is ill sometimes a little pampering can actually be helpful than we know.
When unexpected medical costs mount, little indulgences can fall by the wayside. Prevent this from happening. (A gift card is preferable to a gift basket because heavily scented items can make people in treatment feel very nauseous so it is best for the recipient to choose their preferred items).
Or, help a newly separated person to move back out into the dating world at a pace that is comfortable. Remind them of how attractive they are. Or, bolster their interview spirits as they wait for their opportunity. Help a loved one to stay ready to interview at the drop of a hat when the default has become dry shampoo and yoga pants. Help them stay refreshed and ready to seize any professional opportunity. Enable them to be make-up ready for the interview.
What To Express In Your Card: I saw this and I just thought that you might like to choose a little something for you. Something you don't need. Please choose something you want. I am thinking lots about you.

Good at over 25,000 locations nationwide, recipients can use their Spafinder gift card for a massage or facial, yoga or pilates classes, acupuncture or chiropractic, or over 25 total services. Encourage your loved one to take a break for themselves with a wellness gift card they can use anytime. Available in any denomination between $25 - $500.
Why We Love This Gift: This is one of those gifts perfect in just about any situation. New moms and those facing stressful pregnancies love a massage. When facing illness, those affected do too. To be frank, self-care is often the first casualty of any crisis. When people are incurring unexpected costs at an alarming rate, the first thing to go are the "luxuries." However, those who face highly stressful situations with long/uncertain outcome are precisely those who should practice aggressive self-care. They won't do it for themselves. You do it for them. Pamper them. Let them know you want them to take a break and that their well-being is a priority.
What to Express in Your Card: I hope you don't mind my sending you this gift certificate. There is no one I know more in need of a massage/facial/yoga class. I know you won't do it for yourself - so I wanted to do it for you. I am sending you love.

Sephora offers a vast and diverse selection of prestige beauty products including makeup, skincare, and fragrances in our 250 stores nationwide and online. From classic brands like Clinique to hard-to-find brands like Dior and Too Faced, Sephora provides easy access to over 13,000 products and more than 200 brands.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers an indulgence. It pampers those who need a little extra love and attention. When unexpected medical costs mount, little indulgences can fall by the wayside. Prevent this from happening. As a body works to heal, scaffolding that healing with just a little bit of extra can be a really lovely and sustaining gesture. (A gift card is preferable to a gift basket because heavily scented lotions can hinder healing and so it is recommended to confer with doctors and other medical personnel). As well, Military spouses are sometimes in need of a little indulgence. This is also a good gift for teenagers who may need a little extra attention for any number of reasons.
What To Express In Your Card: I saw this and I just thought that you might like to choose a little something for you. Something you don't need. Please choose something you want. I am thinking lots about you.
