About the foundation
The Waterloo Police Foundation is a non-profit organization that promotes excellence, partnership and community outreach. The Waterloo Police Foundation invests in innovative community based outreach programs to help build positive relationships between police officers and the community.
The Waterloo Police Foundation serves as a vehicle for tax-exempt gifts and grants from individuals, businesses, and philanthropies. The Police Foundation works closely with the Waterloo Police Chief and the Waterloo Police Protective Association (WPPA) to develop a strategic program agenda. The Foundation encourages and supports the Waterloo Police Department with several Youth and Community outreach programs:
· “Cops and Kids” programs-Christmas shopping event and Back to School shopping
· Sgt. Robert Greenlee Youth Cadet Academy
· Situational community policing efforts initiated by Waterloo police officers.
It takes the support of everyone to allow the Waterloo Police Department to build positive relationships and strengthen our community.
Cops and Kids Christmas shopping
This program is designed to help families in times of financial need by giving a child a present when they wouldn’t have received one. The child is matched up with an officer from the Waterloo Police Department while shopping. This helps show that the police in their area are friends and are always there for them.
Cops and Kids Back to School Shopping
This program allows for officers from the Waterloo Police Department to be matched up with local students for back to school shopping. The students are able to pick out backpacks and school supplies.
