Activities or mission (Part I)

TO ENSURE THAT OFFICERS RECEIVE THE LATEST TRAINING, SAFETY EQUIPMENT AND CUTTING EDGE TECHNOLOGY, WE SUPPORT THE VARIOUS UNITS WITHIN THE TAMPA POLICE DEPARTMENT SUCH AS THE BICYCLE UNIT, THE K9 UNIT AND THE PISTOL CLUB. ALSO, WE PROVIDE COMMUNITY OUTREACH THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN THE LIVES OF OFFICERS AND CITIZENS THROUGH PROGRAMS SUCH AS RESOURCES IN COMMUNITY HOPE (RICH) HOUSE (SAFE HOUSES FOR KIDS IN THE COMMUNITY), THE EXPLORERS (MENTORING PROGRAM FOR CHILDREN INTERESTED IN POLICE CAREERS) AND BLACK HISTORY.

  • LAW ENFORCEMENT SUPPORT ENCOMPASSES EQUIPMENT, GEAR AND TRAINING EXPENSES FOR POLICE OFFICERS AND SPECIALTY UNITS. EQUIPMENT INCLUDED A WIDE ARRAY OF PERSONAL PROTECTION AND ASSISTIVE EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES AND TRAINING. OFFICER SUPPORT IS FOR CRITICAL INCIDENTS AND EMERGENCIES THAT ARISE.

    Expenses $302,003

  • COMMUNITY OUTREACH INVOLVES SEVERAL PROJECTS THAT BOTH PROMOTE A POSITIVE INTERACTION BETWEEN POLICE OFFICERS AND THE PUBLIC, AS WELL AS PHILANTHROPY TO THE COMMUNITY PARTNERS. EXAMPLES OF OUTREACH INCLUDED TAMPA NIGHT OUT IN EACH DISTRICT, COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT AND STOP THE VIOLENCE MEETINGS IN EACH DISTRICT, SHOP WITH A COP FOR BACK-TO-SCHOOL AND THE HOLIDAYS, SHIELDING OUR TEENS MENTORING AND JOB PREPARATION, HALLOWEEN AND SPRING CANDY, THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY MEALS AND BACKPACKS FOR CHILDREN IN SCHOOL.

    Expenses $68,236

  • THE EXPLORER PROGRAM PROMOTES THE CAREER OF LAW ENFORCEMENT, TEACHES DISCIPLE AND CONFIDENCE TO CHILDREN, AGES 14-20. THE PROGRAM ALLOWS EXPLORERS TO: COMPLETE A MINIMUM OF 10 COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS MONTHLY; LEARN ABOUT FLORIDA CRIMINAL AND TRAFFIC LAWS; AND, TO PARTICIPATE IN SPECIALTY TEAMS (E.G. BICYCLE & COLOR GUARD). DURING THIS PERIOD, 44 EXPLORERS WERE ENROLLED AND PARTICIPATED IN THIS PROGRAM.

    Expenses $42,606

  • THE TAMPA POLICE DEPARTMENT'S RESOURCES IN COMMUNITY HOPE (R.I.C.H.) HOUSE PROGRAMS SERVE AS A SAFE HAVEN FOR KIDS IN SULPHUR SPRINGS AND ROBLES PARK. TAMPA POLICE OFFICERS SERVE AS A ROLE MODELS, TUTORS AND LIAISONS BETWEEN RESIDENTS AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. THE SITES OFFER AFTER-SCHOOL AND SUMMER SCHOOL PROGRAMMING, IN ADDITION TO ACCESS TO ENRICHMENT AND FAMILY SOCIAL SERVICES. THE PROGRAM'S FOCUS IS ON EDUCATION, CONFLICT-RESOLUTION, SOCIALIZATION AND SELF-ESTEEM BUILDING. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN (115) STUDENTS WERE ENROLLED DURING THIS SCHOOL YEAR. THE BLACK HISTORY COMMITTEE'S MISSION IS TO REDUCE CRIME AND ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE THROUGH A COOPERATIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH ALL CITIZENS. THESE PARTNERSHIPS INCLUDE THE HISTORIC EMPHASIS OF PROMOTING EDUCATIONAL AWARENESS OF AFRICAN AMERICANS IN LAW ENFORCEMENT, THE IMPORTANCE OF DIVERSITY AND ACHIEVEMENT, AND MAINTAINING A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. TEN STUDENTS ATTENDING WERE AWARDED GRANTS TO FURTHER THEIR EDUCATION. THE GOAL OF THE K-9 UNIT IS TO ENHANCE THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S OBJECTIVES IN PROVIDING QUALITY LAW ENFORCEMENT SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY. THE SPECIALLY TRAINED CANINES ACCOMPANY THEIR HUMAN LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL TO PROVIDE INVESTIGATIVE, SEARCH AND SEIZURE, CRIMINAL APPREHENSION AND OTHER LIFE-SAVING ACTIVITIES. THIS GROUP PROVIDES THE CANINES WITH NECESSARY SUPPLIES SUCH AS VESTS AND TRAINING TO ACCOMPLISH THEIR WORK. WE ARE CURRENTLY SERVING 21 CANINES. THE HOMELESS INITIATIVE'S GOAL IS TO PROVIDE COMPASSIONATE OUTREACH FROM POLICE OFFICERS TO THE HOMELESS POPULATION. EXAMPLES OF OUTREACH INCLUDE REFERRALS TO SOCIAL SERVICES, TEMPORARY AND PERMANENT HOUSING ASSISTANCE, TEMPORARY TRANSPORTATION AND SUPPORT IN OBTAINING BIRTH CERTIFICATES AND IDENTIFICATION CARDS. ON AN AVERAGE DAY, THE TWO OFFICERS INTERACT WITH AN AVERAGE OF 40 PEOPLE DAILY, RESULTING IN A NET IMPACT OF AT LEAST 2,400 HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS FOR A YEAR. THE PURPOSE OF THE TAMPA POLICE PISTOL TEAM IS TO PROMOTE FIREARMS SAFETY, AWARENESS, AND PROFICIENCY TRAINING. THE TEAM USES COMPETITIVE SHOOTING SPORTS AS A MEANS TO INTERACT WITH OTHER MEMBERS OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND THE COMMUNITY AND USING THIS EXPERIENCE TO PROVIDE MORE EFFICIENT TRAINING TO TAMPA POLICE OFFICERS. THE ESTIMATED NUMBER OF PEOPLE SERVED WAS 125. THE MOUNTED POLICE UNIT'S GOAL IS TO ENHANCE AND ASSIST THE UNIFORM PATROL DISTRICTS, AS WELL AS ANY AREA OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. MOUNTED PATROL OFFICERS AND THEIR HORSES ARE SPECIALLY TRAINED FOR CRIME PREVENTION, PUBLIC RELATIONS, CRIMINAL APPREHENSION, DIGNITARY PROTECTION, SEARCH AND RESCUE, SPECIAL ESCORTS, CROWD CONTROL AND CIVIL DISORDER. THE HORSES FOR THE UNIT, AND MUCH OF THE EQUIPMENT AND TRAINING, ARE ACQUIRED THROUGH DONATIONS. OVER THE LAST YEAR, THE UNIT HAD SIX MOUNTED OFFICERS AND SIX HORSES.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

As filed, from the IRS e-Postcard file of 19 October 2026. The IRS publishes only each organization's most recent postcard, so earlier years are not shown. A 990-N carries no financial detail. The postcard also gives the principal officer's address, which is not shown here.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
