Raleigh Police Department Foundation
The Triangle
The Raleigh Police Department Police Foundation is an independent, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is dedicated to advancing public safety initiatives and promoting police support for a safe and thriving community.
To support the Raleigh Police Department’s mission of making Raleigh the safest city in America.
Founded in 2022 by local business and civic leaders, the Raleigh Police Department Foundation (RPDF) is dedicated to strengthening the Raleigh Police Department and enhancing public safety through community-driven support. As an independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we organize innovative programs and events that raise tax-deductible donations, directly funding advanced technology, specialized training, and critical resources for a highly skilled and well-equipped police force. Together, we are building safer neighborhoods and a stronger Raleigh. For tax purposes, our EIN is 27-0326382.
The demands on modern law enforcement continue to grow, department budgets remain stretched, leaving little room for critical tools, training, and technology beyond basic operations. Nearly 90% of public funding goes toward personnel, leaving a gap when it comes to innovation and safety. That’s where the Raleigh Police Department Foundation steps in. We exist to bridge that gap, delivering vital resources that help keep our officers safe, support community-based initiatives, and ensure Raleigh remains a place where safety and trust go hand in hand.
