FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1, DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION MISSION: THE MISSION OF LAPF IS TO CREATE PARTNERSHIPS TO PROVIDE RESOURCES AND PROGRAMS THAT HELP THE POLICE PERFORM AT THEIR HIGHEST LEVEL AND TO ENHANCE LAPD-COMMUNITY RELATIONS. LAPF IS AN INDEPENDENT, NOT-FOR-PROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT PROVIDES CRITICAL RESOURCES AND VITAL SUPPORT TO THE LAPD. FROM ESSENTIAL EQUIPMENT AND STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNOLOGY TO SPECIALIZED TRAINING AND INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE UNFUNDED, THE SUPPORT PROVIDED BY LAPF DIRECTLY IMPROVES PUBLIC SAFETY, IMPACTS OFFICER READINESS, AND ENHANCES QUALITY OF LIFE IN THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES. AS THE LARGEST SOURCE OF PRIVATE FUNDING OF THE LAPD, LAPF IS PASSIONATELY DEDICATED TO ENSURING THAT LOS ANGELES REMAINS AMERICA'S SAFEST MAJOR CITY. THE LAPD COVERS AN AREA SPANNING 467 SQUARE MILES WITH 21 DIVERSE COMMUNITIES AND NEARLY 4 MILLION RESIDENTS. LAPD'S OATH TO "PROTECT AND SERVE" IS GETTING TOUGHER, MORE COMPLEX, AND MORE DANGEROUS, AND AS A RESULT, MORE EXPENSIVE. MODERN POLICING REQUIRES A HIGH LEVEL OF SOPHISTICATION IN OFFICER TRAINING AND SAFETY, EQUIPMENT, COMMUNICATIONS, TECHNOLOGY, AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH. WITH 96% OF THE LAPD'S BUDGET SPENT ON PERSONNEL, THERE IS LITTLE LEFT FOR MAJOR PROJECTS THAT WILL ENHANCE EFFICIENCY AND MODERNIZATION OF THE DEPARTMENT. OVER THE YEARS, THE REQUESTS FOR GRANTS HAVE GROWN TO MORE THAN 100 RECEIVED EACH YEAR. LAPF HAS DONATED NEARLY $53,000,000 TO THE LAPD IN THE AREAS OF EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES, SPECIALIZED TRAINING, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, AND YOUTH PROGRAMS. LAPF IS NEEDED MORE THAN EVER IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE LAPD TO MOVE BEYOND THE CONSTRAINTS OF MUNICIPAL FUNDING AND TRULY EXCEL.
