The Nassau County Police Department Foundation, established in December 2008 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, with its mission to provide financial support to the Nassau County Police Department (NCPD) for its analytical, operational, and community outreach components.

In 2008, then NCPD Commissioner of Police Larry Mulvey, collaborated with community philanthropic leaders to address the need for the NCPD to establish its own police academy. This initiative marked the foundation’s genesis, and fundraising efforts commenced.

Beyond the police academy’s establishment, the NCPD Foundation swiftly mobilized fund-raising efforts to support the department’s ongoing operations. Initial support enabled the acquisition of raincoats and safety vests for Auxiliary Police Officers and the resumption of several community initiatives, including the Police Youth Academy and Citizen Police Academy Programs, which had been suspended due to budgetary constraints.

The NCPD Foundation also contributes to the refurbishment and construction of police precincts and booths, the upgrading of various NCPD departments and units, and supporting department wide staff and officer appreciation events. As well as organizing several annual holiday and seasonal events that bring NCPD police officers together with disadvantaged youth in the community, to develop better relations, understanding, and cooperation with the people the NCPD serves.

After fifteen years of unwavering dedication and the steadfast support of Nassau County businesses and community members, the NCPD Foundation has successfully raised over $12 million. This substantial funding has enabled the completion of the David S. Mack Center for Training & Intelligence and the establishment of the state-of-the-art Training Village. Moreover, the funds have been allocated to procure essential equipment for officers, support officers and their families in times of need, as well as to support many vital community initiatives managed by the NCPD.

The unwavering perseverance of the NCPD Foundation board and supporters has been instrumental in the success of the NCPD Foundation. We remain committed to expanding our support to provide the NCPD with the necessary resources to continue its mission of making Nassau County the safest large county in the United States.
