The Ahmad Butler Foundation is a charitable nonprofit organization established as an Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) on January 15, 2020. The Ahmad Butler Foundation is named after six-year-old Ahmad "Captain Poodaman" Butler, who aspired to become a Police Officer when he became an adult to "help a lot of people."
