The San Diego County Law Enforcement Foundation (SDCLEF) is a nonprofit 501(C)(3)'corporation,

other programs as deemed worthy by the SDCLEF. Each year, the SDCLEF establishes a budget for
grants to be shared among all eleven San Diego County law enforcement agencies. The proposed
budget for FY 2013 is approximately $30,000.00. On August 21, 2013, the SDCLEF's Board of
Directors awarded National City Police Department a grant in the amount of $2,201.65 to purchase ten
