HOW DONATIONS ARE USED

The Palo Alto Police Foundation (PAPF) invests in programs and initiatives that are not financed in the city's annual budget, all to deepen appreciation and relationships. Your donation will support officer wellness and community-strengthening relations.

We do not fund:

  • Salaries & benefits for Police Department officers and employees.
  • Requests that typically fall under the responsibility of the City to fund that are essential to maintain the performance of officers and employees that work in the department.
  • Requests that bypass the City or Department policy.
  • Weapons and ammunition.
  • Political activities or projects, including lobbying, advocacy work, ballot measures, or political candidates.
  • Nonprofit organizations or programs without a direct, official tie to the community or Police Department.
