About the Foundation

“Supporting Those Who Serve.
Strengthening the Communities They Protect.”

Arizona Sheriffs' Foundation

Our Mission

The Arizona Sheriffs' Foundation is a separate nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to strengthening public safety and supporting the communities served by Arizona’s sheriffs. Working alongside sheriffs and community partners across the state, the Foundation provides charitable resources to advance programs and initiatives that make a meaningful difference for Arizonans.

Our work focuses on supporting search and rescue, public safety education and training, youth and community-based programs, and assistance for law enforcement personnel and their families during times of significant need or tragedy. The Foundation also creates opportunities to develop innovative partnerships and invest in emerging needs identified by sheriffs in the communities they serve.

At its core, the Foundation is about service, partnership, and community — bringing people and resources together to support those who protect and serve Arizona and to help build safer, stronger communities throughout our state.
