Dear Friends...

The Saint Paul Police Foundation is committed to supporting projects that create community partnerships with our police department; that expand the use of technology in deterring and solving crime; and that improve the readiness of our police officers through education that is focused on the safety of our citizens.

Since, 2005, the Police Foundation has invested more than $1.8 million in critical projects that have made our streets safer, that have reduced gang activity, and that have provided our police officers with important crime-fighting equipment that would not have otherwise been available through limited City funding.

Our success has been the result of caring individuals, businesses, organizations, and volunteers who believe in the importance of making our community safe for those who live, work and do business in Saint Paul. Thank you… we appreciate your support!!
