History
Halton Police Foundation is the first Police Foundation to be established in Ontario. We are a registered charity with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA #713200277 RR0001).
In 2024, in honour of its 50th anniversary, Halton Regional Police Service launched the Halton Police Foundation (HPF). First responders have a unique understanding of the challenges faced by the community's most vulnerable members. While the police serve community members during their most difficult moments, we know that lasting change comes from working together. That's why HPF works alongside Halton Regional Police Service and is dedicated to building strong community partnerships by providing funding to registered charities to support life-changing programs for at-risk youth and underserved adults and families.
Gala
Held on September 19, 2024, the Halton Police Foundation Gala was a night to remember celebrating the Halton Regional Police Services' half century milestone, as well as raising critical funds in support of the region's most at-risk and underserved community members. As champions of the Halton Police Foundation Gala, our sponsors, community partners and donors are catalysts for positive change. We sincerely thank them for their commitment to ensure everyone in Halton can thrive.
