Our Mission

Where Community Support Meets K-9 Service

Born from the profound loss of Officer Timothy Jones and K‑9 Lazer, the St. Paul Police K‑9 Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to supporting our heroic K‑9 units. We raise funds to fill critical gaps not covered by city budgeting, like advanced training programs, equipment, and community outreach. Our work supports not only the St. Paul Police K‑9 Unit but also agencies across Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and the Dakotas.

Bridging the Community & K‑9 Teams
We foster strong relationships between our K‑9 units and local businesses, schools, and neighborhoods. Through public demonstrations, educational programs, and volunteer opportunities, we invite you to connect with these remarkable officers and their canine partners.

Together, We Make a Difference
Your donations and involvement help send K‑9 teams to essential training, replace worn gear, support therapy and patrol dogs, and ensure every need is met. Your support has life-saving impact far beyond our city.
