In front by the K9 memorial Statue – Open to anyone.

Lettsew K9 Foundation is dissolving after 5 years of fundraising for Jefferson County K9s
and the surrounding area. Lettsew K9 is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. LETTSEWK9
FOUNDATION stands for Law Enforcement Training Teams of Southeastern Wisconsin.
Our mission is to support K9s in law enforcement and educate the communities they
serve to protect. Over the years we have fundraised and raised awareness for the needs
of K9 units in our communities.

We have supported K9 units in
★ Lake Mills
★ Watertown
★ UW-Whitewater – 2 K9 Units
★ Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office – 4 K9 units
★ Fort Atkinson
★ Ripon
K9 units rely on community support.

These small K9 units have always been “for the community, by the community” which
means that the unit is not taxpayer-funded. We are truly blessed to have these
dedicated teams in our community!

Local K9 units are trained to assist in;
explosive detection
narcotic detection
suspect apprehension
searching for suspects and lost people
crowd control and building searches

Our Board of Directors is made up of volunteers who have dedicated their time and
heart into fundraising for the paws that enforce the laws. Unfortunately, we have
struggled to find volunteers to commit, which has ultimately led our group to dissolve.

Lettsew K9 Foundation is thrilled to donate over $50,000 divided equally between the
10 K9 units.
