Royal Canadian Mounted Police Foundation

The RCMP Foundation was founded in 1994 as a charitable organization. Since 1994, the RCMP Foundation has contributed more than $10.5 million to support some 1,000 community groups initiatives across the country. "About Us". 
Organizational overview.
The RCMP Foundation (legal name: Mounted Police Foundation), is an independent, arm’s-length, self-funded, registered charitable organization that supports community programs across Canada that benefit from voluntary RCMP involvement. The Foundation does not fund RCMP detachments or members, nor does it fund core policing functions.
Funding.
Funds generated include royalties from the licensing program. 
What the Foundation Does.
RCMP members have a unique relationship with their communities. They identify ways in which the Foundation can invest and deliver programs that complement their work to make communities safer by reducing violence and diverting youth away from dangerous and criminal activities. 
Licensing Program.
As master licensor for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, the Foundation manages the commercial use of the RCMP name, image and trademarks. In exchange for royalty payments, the Foundation allows companies to produce and market "official" RCMP merchandise. 
In June 1999, the Foundation partnered with Regional Maple Leaf Communications under the licensing program to lend their endorsement to The Elementary Safety Book For Children, Drug Facts For Young People and the Teenage Survival Handbook. The three RMC publications are available free of charge to communities across Canada. RMC's fourth publication Green Planet for Kids and all four accompanying websites were included in the endorsement as of April 1, 2013.
The Mountie Shop.
In 2007 the RCMP Foundation took over the on-site retail facilities of the RCMP canteens, rebranding the stores as The Mountie Shop; net profits from the Shop contribute to the foundation.
