ILEAS Foundation Grant - Panasonic Cameras

The ILEAS Foundation is excited to announce its first ever grant of police equipment to Illinois law enforcement agencies. The ILEAS Foundation is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to supporting law enforcement in Illinois. The Foundation raises private funds to create safer communities by investing in state-of-the-art equipment and professional training to build on the strengths of every police officer and deputy in Illinois. The ILEAS Foundation is an 11-501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation formed in 2009. The Foundation was formed to support local law enforcement in Illinois outside of the standard government grant process.

Foundation Activities

The Foundation plans to raise funds in several different ways:

Donations

The Foundation will seek donations both from individuals and corporations. For the donor, the Foundation is a way to fairly, efficiently and effectively distribute resources to local law enforcement agencies throughout the state.  For instance, if a local organization wants to raise funds for in-car cameras to combat DUI, the Foundation would be a tax deductible way to get that equipment  to law enforcement agencies. 

Grants

The Foundation seeks private and corporate grants to provide services and resources to local law enforcement agencies in Illinois. 

Fundraising

The Foundation will conduct  fundraising events in Illinois to enhance the training for officers and deputies throughout the State. ILEAS raised over $2,000 from mechandise sales and donations.
