The Five-0 Foundation is funded through charitable contributions, fundraising activities, and philanthropic support from individuals, organizations, and community partners who believe in strengthening public safety and community well-being. All funds raised are used to support the Foundation’s grantmaking mission and are distributed in accordance with applicable nonprofit regulations and governance oversight.

As a grantmaking foundation, the Five-0 Foundation does not rely on government funding for its operations. Instead, we steward private donations and fundraising proceeds to provide financial support to qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations whose work aligns with our mission, including children’s hospitals, veteran support organizations, public-safety charities, and educational initiatives.

The Foundation operates with a volunteer board and a lean administrative structure, allowing the majority of funds raised to be directed toward charitable grants and mission-focused support.

We are governed by a volunteer, uncompensated board of directors, and we strive to keep administrative costs low so that more of every dollar goes directly to programs and assistance.
