Funding as a Force for Good

The Community Relations Officers of the Philadelphia Police Department reach into every neighborhood in the city. And, in doing so, there are many financial needs as we hold events, trainings, community gatherings, town hall meetings and so much more. The Police Foundation provides the funding to make so much of this outreach and these events and programs possible. We are deeply grateful to the Foundation for stepping to allow the Community Relations Unit to better serve the families who comprise the neighborhoods of this city.”
Chief Inspector, Altovise Love-Craighead

The Office of Forensic Science’ mission is to provide scientific and technical services that assist in the identification of perpetrators of crime, exoneration of the innocent, and development of connections between crimes. The support we’ve received from the PPF, is critical to the OFS and the entire Philadelphia Police Department as we work daily to meet our mission in service to the law-abiding citizens of Philadelphia.”
Deputy Managing Director, Michael Garvey
