Title:
Adopt Resolution #25-281 Accepting Donation of a $2,000 grant from the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Foundation
Purpose/Background:
I’m pleased to share that the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Foundation (MCPF) has approved $102,000 in Community Partnership Grants funding to 58 different agencies. This is a record-setting amount of funds allocated toward this grant program by MCPF! The MCPF Board once again chose to increase the total funding to ensure these important community engagement projects receive the support they need.
The Foundation continues to see a strong mix of new ideas and returning programs ranging from youth engagement events to cultural outreach, safety education, and mental health awareness. Programs like these reflect the ongoing commitment of Minnesota’s law enforcement professionals to build and strengthen relationships with the communities they serve.
The City of Ramsey Police Department is one of the agencies receiving funding as part of the 2025 Community Partnership Grant cycle.
Thank you to everyone who applied, and congratulations to all 2025 grant recipients. We look forward to seeing the lasting impact these projects will make in communities across the state.
