Marie Dockery, the owner of Femme Fatale Ladies Gun Store and Training, held a fundraiser to help pay for the latest technology in protecting police K9 officers.

Her efforts resulted in raising $5,020 which she proudly presented to the Palm Bay Police Department today so that they could purchase this new technology.

Her store’s facebook page states: We are a woman owned business which provides education and support to an over victimized and under served segment of our population. We have programs to build confidence and skill without the intimidating aspects that tend to exist elsewhere in this industry. Our goal is customer satisfaction and loyalty. We’d appreciate an opportunity to show you how we are different, yet still help you to accomplish your education and safety goals.

Femme Fatale is a great example of a local small business that is invested in its community.

Femme Fatale ARMS is grateful to the community for their support of our business and because of this we are always looking for opportunities to give back to them. In the past we have supported the Serene Harbour the local domestic violence shelter, Victim Services of Palm Bay and the Palm Bay Police Explorer Program, we also supported organizations that support our Veterans and are currently looking for an opportunity to support a Children’s Christmas charity. When we became aware of a need we thought what better way to show our appreciation to this awesome community than to support the men, women and animals who protect them. It came to my attention the Palm Bay K-9’s needed support so we hosted a raffle for them. The response from the community was overwhelming. Many citizens came forward to buy a raffle ticket simply because it enabled them a means to show support and contribute to their Local Law Enforcement Agency. We are small business trying to compete in a big box world and believe our community connections are what make a difference.
