2025 Funded Grants

Through generous donations made by our community, the Vancouver Police Foundation funds innovative, creative, and inspiring VPD community programs each year. These are their ideas—made possible by your support.

These programs and initiatives fall outside of the regular operating budget of the city and the VPD officers that operate these programs typically do so on their own time – after a shift or on days off. Program support falls within three funding streams: Community Outreach & Engagement, Public & Personal Safety,  and Technology & Special Equipment.

Below are some of the programs that were proud to fund in 2025 thanks to the generous support of our donors.
