HOW TO HELP
Funding MPF
When it comes to community-police relations, the Milwaukee Police Foundation puts the community first in everything we do. Our mission to improve safety for Milwaukee is built on improving the tools and resources for the Milwaukee Police Department and those they serve.
Additional funding for the Milwaukee Police Department allows our men and women in blue to invest in cutting-edge technology that improves officer safety and promotes fair policing practices (e.g., body-worn cameras and Specialized Police Intelligence and Data Resources (SPIDR)).
Police officers put themselves in the line of duty every day. Improving officer safety is a key part of the Milwaukee Police Foundation’s mission. Funding provides the best tools and training needed to make it home every night. This means specialized de-escalation training, improved mental health resources, and safety precautions in stations.
Our community is stronger when police and citizens work together. The Milwaukee Police Department enjoys actively engaging with the community and participates in several annual outreach programs. With most of the Milwaukee Police Department’s budget devoted to personnel salaries, additional funding is needed to support the community programs we love so much.

MPF’s mission is to encourage and foster officer and community engagement, making Milwaukee a safe city in which to live, work, and enjoy life. Limited funding is available for essential tools and resources needed to enhance community trust and ensure officer safety. The Milwaukee Police Foundation works tirelessly to aid the MPD by funding tools and resources needed to enrich the services provided to the community.
