Over the past quarter of a century, the Friends of the Mounted Police Heritage Centre have raised and donated in excess of $2,000,000 for operations, artifact procurement, restoration and management, as well as capital to help build the RCMP HERITAGE CENTRE. That two million dollars, primarily made up of individual donations and membership dues, has gone a long way in leveraging corporate support for major capital projects and general operations for the Centre. The Centre would not exist if it wasn’t for the individuals that saw value in helping us reach our goals to first build a Centre at the Home of the RCMP, and to continue to help us support its operations.

The RCMP Heritage Centre welcomes visitors from around the globe to its superb flagship facility, on the grounds of RCMP Academy “Depot” Division, where the Tradition began and continues to live. It’s the Force’s Alma Mater, protecting and preserving the organization’s rich culture and history and sharing not only RCMP, but Canadian stories with the world.

All donation options can also be made with a Cheque by downloading this PDF and mailing them both to this address:

MEMBERSHIP

There’s a common misconception that you have to be a retired RCMP veteran to be a “Friend”. Though our roots were born from the Regina RCMP Veterans Association, we’re happy to say that we don’t discriminate. Our membership consists of current active RCMP members, RCMP civilian staff, members from other police and para-military units, spouses and family of current, fallen, retired and deceased RCMP members, and others with no direct tie for the Force.

Despite our diversity, we all have a common love and ambition to see RCMP stories shared, and shared well. As of January 1, 2024 we were 1,300 strong and growing with members from every Canadian province, in almost every U.S. state, as well as in England, Scotland, Germany, Spain, Australia, Ireland and Austria.

One of the easiest and quickest ways to support us without making too big of a commitment out of the gate, is to become a member of the Friends. It costs $50 dollars a year and acts as a gateway to all kinds of great information about our organization and the good work that we’re supporting at the RCMP Heritage Centre.

DONATIONS IN HONOUR OF SOMEONE

We think it’s extremely important to have set policies and practices in place to help people grieve or celebrate in the manner that they feel best represents their friends or family members. We’re happy to take donations in memory or celebration of individuals, couples or groups. We do make great effort to inform the families or individuals on whose behalf donations are being made. The more information that you provide on the donation form with respects to who we can inform of your gift, the easier our jobs. If you wish to remain anonymous, there’s an option for that too.

There are a number of ways that you can make a donation in someone’s memory:

HONOUR SOMEONE


TROOP DONATIONS

Those of us who served with the RCMP remember our time at RCMP Academy “Depot” Division fondly. Many of us have even made a point of organizing and attending troop reunions during and after our service with the RCMP. The Friends have dedicated a whole portion of our online and digital donor walls to Troop Funds. This is a great way to donate in memory of your time in training with the wonderful men and women that helped get you to your first detachment.

It only takes one member to start a Troop Fund. With that initial donation, your troop information will be posted online and on-site at the Heritage Centre. We’ll provide you with links so that you can easily show your fellow troop mates where to go if they wish to add to the “pot”.

Your Troop will be immortalized on our donor page and you’ll all have the satisfaction of having, as a troop, helped us reach our mandate of ensuring RCMP stories get shared, and shared well.
