Apply for a Grant

The Los Angeles Police Foundation supports the LAPD by providing funds in the areas of equipment and technology upgrades, specialized training, community outreach and youth programs. Each year, the LAPF’s Board of Directors consults with LAPD leadership to determine priorities for funding.

Before applying for a grant, please review the Los Angeles Police Foundation's 2020 Funding Guidelines.

Prior to submitting an application to the LAPF, grant requests are first reviewed by LAPD command staff to ensure the need is a Department priority and that the LAPF is the most appropriate source of funding for the request.

Complete all areas of the application form. The grant proposal must be signed by your Commanding Officer. Provide supporting documentation, such as written estimates or proposals that indicate exactly what the LAPF is paying for should the grant be approved. Please retain a copy for your records. Grants submitted to the LAPF without proper signatures will not be considered.

There are two types of grants – each has its own specific paperwork. If you have a restricted account at the Los Angeles Police Foundation, please use the Division Restricted Account Grant Application and accompanying paperwork.

Please complete the following forms and forward to your Commanding Officer:
