MILWAUKIE PUBLIC SAFETY FOUNDATION
Oregon State Registration 148532-
The Milwaukie Public Safety Foundation is a non profit organization properly registered with the State of Oregon and the IRS. It is not part of, and is not run by the City of Milwaukie Council.
The aims and objectives of MPSF are to promote and encourage public safety initiatives within the City of Milwaukie or which are largely to the benefit of the City of Milwaukie. It will seek to do this by raising funds by charitable donations and then using those funds to sponsor organizations and events which meet the aims and objectives of the MPSF.
Our Projects To Date
Officer, Reserve Officer and Cadet of the Year
Each year an officer, a reserve officer and Cadet of the year are nominated by their peers. These officers are presented with an award at a informal dinner attended by the Mayor, Chief of Police, Milwaukie PD officers, friends,family and citizens. The cost of this event is paid from donations raised by the Foundation.
Milwaukie K9 Program

There was a previous K9 officer with Milwaukie PD, pictured right with the handler, but when the dog retired the funds were not available to buy and train a replacement. It is the aim of MPSF that a similar situation should not arise again and that Milwaukie PD will have a K9 officer well into the future.
We now have a second K9 Officer dedicated to drug detection and MPSF aims to raise funds to help maintain and recruit new Officers when the current ones retire.
MPSF will also make available free of charge space on our web site for any organization meeting the aims and objectives of the MPSF to promote their own events and activities.
