"David (Valentine), owner of Valentine's Marine, has been a long time sponsor and supporter of the Foundation. Denise (Sivetts) comes from a law enforcement family and has been volunteering for the past few years. Marcus (Black), a Denver Police Department Officer who was wounded while on duty in 2021, was an MC-1 Foundation beneficiary. We are very fortunate to have them by our side as we continue to strengthen our team." "MC-1 is stewarded by a highly engaged and committed Board of Trustees," says Mark Miller, President of the MC-1 Foundation. "We are thrilled that each of these new Board members offers a variety of expertise and a shared understanding of how local giving can impact the needs of our Colorado Public Service employees. Having a longtime volunteer, a sponsor, and a beneficiary join our Board says alot about what we are doing and what we will continue to do for our injured first responders." The three new Members are joining a current Board that is comprised of the following: President: Mark Miller; Jefferson County Sheriff's Department Deputy Vice-President: Former Secretary/Current Board Member: Julie Powell; Owner of JP Creative Solutions Board Member: Paul Smoker; Sergeant Deputy Sheriff, Jefferson County Sheriff's Office About the MC-1 Foundation: The MC-1 Foundation was started as the MC-1 Honor Run, a fundraiser motorcycle ride for the family of Sgt. Dave Baldwin of the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office (E.O.W. 1/26/14). Sergeant Baldwin, whose radio call sign was MC-1, was killed in the line of duty after being struck on his motorcycle by a wrong-way driver. Since that event, the MC-1 Foundation, which is a 100% volunteer organization, has grown to become a tax-exempt organization under Section 503(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (#47-5206410) The mission of the Foundation is to provide financial support to public service employees and/or their families in the event that they are hurt or killed while on duty providing service for their communities. Between 2014 and July 2023, the MC-1 Foundation offered financial assistance to 40 public service employees/families with a total of over $353,000 being donated to those families.
