Please Join Us for a Benefit Event for Vlad Valentekovich
Vladimir Valentekovich, known to many as "Vlad", has been an integral part of our police department and community as a Palos Verdes Estates Reserve Police Officer for the past 15 years.
Recently, Vlad received the difficult diagnosis of Stage 4 prostate cancer. Despite this challenging news, Vlad is facing this battle with the same strength and determination he has shown throughout his tenure with the Palos Verdes Estates Police Department.
Throughout his career, Vlad has tirelessly served our community, working patrol shifts, participating in departmental warrant services, and serving as one of our primary firearm instructors. His dedication has been invaluable, from training new officers in firearm safety to leading active shooter trainings in our local schools.
Now, as Vlad undergoes state-of-the-art treatments and therapies, we stand together as a community and his law enforcement family to support him and his family during this challenging time. The Palos Verdes Police Officers Association is raising funds to assist the Valentekovich family as they focus on Vlad's health and well-being.
Please also consider joining us on March 3, 2024, from 2:00pm-8:00pm, at Veterans of Foreign Wars (1000 N. Catalina Ave., Redondo Beach, CA 90277) for a benefit to support Vlad and his family. All proceeds will help offset Vlad's expected medical costs of his treatment.
