The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Foundation or RCMP Foundation (formally the Mounted Police Foundation) is an independent, arm’s-length, self-funded, registered charitable organization that supports community programs across Canada. The Foundation invests in and delivers programs that complement the Royal Canadian Mounted Police's (RCMP) work in the community, through programs that divert youth away from dangerous and criminal activities. The Foundation does not fund RCMP detachments or members, nor does it fund core policing functions.
