The LSSTF was created for the sole purpose of raising funds and other resources with the aim of supporting Security Agencies in the State (particularly the Rapid Response Squad – RRS) in combating crime in the State.

The LSSTF is not a Security Agent or Agency. It is a Public-Private partnership Organization set up to raise funds and caters for the needs of Security Agents and Agencies.

The activities of the Fund are geared towards fundraising and provision of assets for Security Agents. This has assisted the Fund to raise money to the tune of N17 Billion (Seventeen Billion Naira) in equipment, material and cash.

You can make donations through direct deposits into the Fund’s bank accounts via cheques, by transfer, or on the donation platform on the website of the Fund. Donations in kind/material can be made to Office of the Fund. Please, Click Here to visit the Fund’s donate page for more information.

LSSTF has a highly interactive website where you can report crimes or make suggestions. However, as the Fund is not a Security Agency, such information will be passed to the appropriate Security Agency. For Emergency Response Services, Please, call 112 / 767 toll free.
