Standing with Those Who Protect Madera County
The Madera County Sheriff’s Foundation brings our community together to support the people, programs, and resources that help keep Madera County safe.
Supporting the Mission Behind the Badge
The Madera County Sheriff’s Foundation exists to strengthen the connection between our Sheriff’s Office and the community it serves. Through charitable support, we help provide resources, equipment, programs, and opportunities that empower those who protect and serve Madera County.
where community makes an impact
Your involvement helps provide the resources, opportunities, and support that strengthen our Sheriff’s Office and the community it serves.
Scholarships
Scholarships will support the advancement of Madera County youth and adults in law enforcement related careers. This includes support for two year and four year degree programs, law enforcement academy attendance, advanced certification(s) and degree training that will improve public safety and law enforcement in Madera County.
Equipment
The focus here will be on outfitting the volunteer programs-Search and Rescue, Citizens on Patrol, Chaplains, and Explorers-and funding advanced equipment that improves readiness, response, and safety of Sheriff’s Office personnel.
K-9 Training
K9 teams provide additional safety, and detection, and community engagement options for Sheriff’s Office personnel. Ongoing annual cost for medical care, continuing training, and replacement cost for equipment and the K9s themselves will be provided or augmented by the Foundation.
Training & Community Engagement
Volunteers generally raise their own funding for most training opportunities. The Foundation assists in funding training attendance for volunteer and full time employees, as well as funding local training presentations. The Foundation also assists Sheriff’s Personnel with community engagement through providing items such as the portable climbing wall and the pop up park.
