Foundation

Supporting those who serve our community with the tools, training, and resources that keep Boulder safe.

Our MissionThe Boulder Police Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that bridges the gap between the BPD’s budget and the excellence our community deserves. We fund K9 teams, advanced body armor, training tools, and community programs that government budgets simply can’t cover.

What We Do

What we fund

We fund the equipment, technology, and programs that fall outside Boulder PD’s budget — from K9 teams and body armor to VR training simulators and community outreach events.

Who we support

Boulder Police Department officers, K9 handlers, and the broader Boulder community. We believe investing in our officers is investing in our neighborhoods.

How we work

Community donors like you fund specific campaigns — each tied to a real need at BPD. 100% of campaign donations go directly to that program. No guesswork, just impact.

Why it matters

Government funding alone can’t keep pace with what it takes to run a modern, community-centered police department. The Foundation fills that gap — with your help.

Our volunteers & board

Thank you to our donors, partners, and community supporters. Thank you to our dedicated board members and volunteers who make this mission possible.

About the Team

Our vision for Boulder

We envision a Boulder where our police officers have everything they need to serve with excellence — and where the community stands proudly behind them.

The Foundation exists because we believe public safety is a shared responsibility. When Boulder thrives, it’s because its officers and its people work together — and we help make that partnership possible.

— where community and cops build something better together.
