Phoenix Police Foundation

2022 Year in Review

Thank You For Supporting The Women and Men of the Phoenix Police Department

This year, with backing from our supporters, the Phoenix Police Foundation has funded new ventures, such as our first capital campaign to create a new center for victims of domestic violence, as well as purchasing lifesaving equipment, funding youth programming, and honoring our officers for their exceptional dedication and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Officer Tyler Moldovan with his wife Chelsea a year after Tyler was shot eight times on December 14, 2021. Tyler defied the odds and continues his amazing recovery with Chelsea by his side every day. The Foundation passed on 100% of donations received on his behalf to the family.

In 2022, eight Phoenix Police Department Police Officers were shot in the line of duty and another seventeen injured. All survived, but we are reminded of the dangers of the job and the courage of those who wear the uniform.

The Phoenix Police Foundation provided a grant to the Phoenix Police Department to purchase eight new mountain bikes for its Desert Horizon Precinct bike squad. The bike squad in the Sunnyslope neighborhood, is an important aspect of ongoing community outreach efforts.

The Foundation hosted the 2nd Annual Honor Run in March 2022. A tribute to the forty-one Phoenix Police Officers who have been killed in the line of duty. Proceeds were used to send fallen Officer Gino New's Squad to Police Week.

The Foundation received a $50,000 check at the capital campaign kick-off for the Victim Center renovation project. The renovation will develop a new space that will provide more dignity and respect and a warmer environment for sexual assault and domestic violence victims.

Phoenix Police Department Cadets present the colors at Chase Field. The Foundation provided a $30,000 grant to support the Cadet program in 2022.

In 2022 the Foundation applied for and received a grant to fund over $50,000 in life preservation technology for the K9 Program, including robots, under-door cameras, and thermal imaging. These tools enhance the safety of the dogs, handlers and community.

The Phoenix Police Foundation and city leaders hosted the 5th annual Women in Blue Celebration on September 21, 2022. The event honored women in the Phoenix Police Department for their amazing work.

After its launch four years ago, the Phoenix Police Department Cool Treats Van received a new wrap. Thank you to Courtesy Chevrolet for making this possible.

On December 3, 2022, the Foundation and Let it Roll Bowl hosted the 2nd Annual Knocking Pins with the Police.
