Today is Give STL day! https://www.givestlday.org/give/St-Louis-Police-Foundation

The St. Louis Police Foundation is proud to support the officers of both the St. Louis County Police Department and the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department through programs and resources that strengthen officer wellness, support their families, and invest in public safety across our region.

If you’d like to support the work we do for those who serve our community every day, we’d truly appreciate your donation.

After an extraordinary 46-year career in law enforcement, Colonel Kenneth Gregory retired as Chief of the St. Louis County Police Department on May 1. His decades of leadership, service, and commitment have left an enduring mark on the department and the broader St. Louis community. The Foundation is deeply grateful for his dedication and the legacy he leaves behind. Please join us in thanking Chief Gregory for his remarkable service and wishing him continued success and fulfillment in his next chapter.

Before help arrives, there’s a voice on the other end of the line, steady, focused, and ready. Dispatchers guide people through some of their hardest moments, all while making sure first responders have what they need to act fast.

They may not be seen, but their impact is felt in every call, every response, every life helped.

The St. Louis Police Foundation is grateful for all they do to support and protect St. Louis.

Our hearts are with Officer Triplett’s family, friends and the entire SLMPD.

We’re devastated.

Our beloved colleague and friend, Police Officer Gregory Triplett, 58, fought til the very end. He passed away after suffering a medical emergency during a training exercise.

Officer Triplett faithfully served the citizens of St. Louis and the SLMPD for nearly 32 years.

Please keep Officer Triplett’s family, friends and the entire SLMPD in your prayers.

St. Louis County PD wins!

We were proud to see Michelle Craig featured on The Brighter Side of Blue. As our Executive Director, she’s led the St. Louis Police Foundation in raising millions to support law enforcement across the region, helping provide training, equipment, and resources that keep officers and communities safer.

It was great having Michelle Craig in the studio for lunch today. We’re always grateful for the time and perspective she brings, and it was a fantastic conversation about the important work being done across our region.

Michelle has been part of the St. Louis Police Foundation since day one back in 2008, starting as a part-time employee and now serving as Executive Director. Over the years, the Foundation has helped raise roughly $70 million to support law enforcement across the St. Louis area, an incredible impact that has touched countless officers.

The Police Foundation plays such an important role by helping provide equipment, training, technology, and support that departments might not otherwise have access to. Their work ultimately helps officers do their jobs safer and more effectively while strengthening the connection between law enforcement and the communities they serve.

Michelle has built incredible relationships throughout the law enforcement community, and we can’t thank her enough for everything she does to help provide resources, opportunities, and support for the men and women who serve.

We also want to thank everyone at the St. Louis Police Foundation and all those who support their efforts. The impact of your work is felt every day, and our region is better because of it.

Communities that support law enforcement are safer places to live.✌️💙
