The mission of the Greensboro Police Foundation is to supplement funding for innovative police programs, equipment and technology that make Greensboro a safer place to live, work and visit. Three Focus Areas 1. Specialized training, equipment and technology to fight crime 2. Officer safety, wellness and recognition 3. Community partnerships and advocacy We have raised over $800,000 since 2011. The foundation has worked tirelessly to raise funds to support the Greensboro Police Department. More than 83% of the department's budget is dedicated to salaries and benefits, which leaves very little funding for other initiatives.
