OUR MISSION

The Matt Haverkamp Foundation’s mission is to assist local police departments in the greater Cincinnati area by providing funding for the purchase of dogs for their K9 Units.We are proud to have been able to purchase 53 K9s for local police departments since The Foundation’s inception in 2005. So far this year we have received requests from three departments and hope you will help us support the goals, mission and vision of the Foundation.

Foundation has funded the purchase of 15 new K9's in 2017 -- three for Hamilton County, six for the City, Oxford, Cheviot, Colerain, Forest Park, Green Township & Golf Manor! That's a grand total of 53 K9's!
