About Los Angeles Retired Fire & Police Association

LARFPA was first known as the Los Angeles City Pensioners Protective Association. A constitution and by‑laws was adopted at a regular meeting of the members on December 15, 1926 with the 1927 officers listed as John G. Todd - President, Edwin L. Oker - Vice President, Kurt Neitzke - Secretary-Treasurer, and Board Members - Charles B. Casey and Arthur Graham. The Los Angeles Retired Fire and Police Benevolent Association was incorporated in 2007 as a public charity, a 501C-3 tax-exempt, non-profit corporation. The 990-federal tax return is filed as a Private Foundation. The Benevolent Association was funded in 2008 from the 501C-3 trust fund awarded to LARFPA, a 501C-4 non-profit, mutual benefit membership corporation, in 1991 by Superior Court. To join LARFPA you must be a retired pensioner from LAPD or LAFD, active sworn personnel eligible to join the LAFPP pensions system at retirement, or a widow or dependent child receiving a pension. The purpose of the organization is to operate a social welfare advocacy organization, on a non-profit, non-sectarian, non-political basis for the pensioners of the Los Angeles Fire and Police Departments, their spouses or surviving spouses, widows, widowers, and dependent parents or children.
