- uniforms
- badges
- arm patches
- photographs
- flags
- signs

- equipment
The Department said they are willing to receive items in several ways to make it convenient for you. They do note that any item donated should have the following information attached:

- Donated by:
- Contact information. (It may be necessary to make contact to complete the story.)
Any print item can be scanned and emailed to: hewitte@cityofnampa.us or dwyrej@cityofnampa.us. Or, items can be scanned/ photographed in person and returned.
For those interested in donating, you can visit the Nampa Police Department lobby (820 2nd Street South) on May 28, or June 4 between 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
