The Monroe County Sheriff’s Foundation is dedicated to supporting the Sheriff’s Office with funding not otherwise available through the traditional budget process. Sheriff Todd Baxter has committed to building a Sheriff’s Office that reflects the community it serves. Although the Sheriff’s Office has allocated a part of the annual budget for targeted recruitment, it is not nearly enough to pursue the aggressive pro-active targeted recruitment needed to meet the goals of the agency.
Supporting Those Who Keep Our Community Safe
Our mission is simple: to provide financial support for special Sheriff’s Office projects and equipment that cannot be supported solely by Monroe County tax dollars – especially those directly affecting the safety and well-being of our community. The Foundation gives 100% of funds raised to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office.
