The Mr Copper Foundation was a foundation that funded many advanced scientific subjects, (PROSE: "Putting Things Straight") including the development of the Sub-Wave Network. Harriet Jones used this technology to communicate with Martha Jones, Torchwood Three and Sarah Jane Smith. (TV: The Stolen Earth)

The Mr Copper Foundation was established and endowed in the early 21st century by Mr Copper, a mysterious gentleman of unknown first name. Copper was widely believed to be a pseudonym, due to the fact there was no record of his existence prior to Christmas 2007. Even after that point, no official records existed for Copper. Unbeknownst to most, (PROSE: "Putting Things Straight") Mr Copper was a former employee on the Titanic who was left on Earth in 2007 with a rather valuable pre-paid credit card following an adventure with the Tenth Doctor. (TV: Voyage of the Damned) Mr Copper used his newfound wealth to establish the Mr Copper Foundation. Some time later, a letter from the Doctor was found among the papers held by the foundation. The letter corrected Copper on some of his misconceptions of what Earth was like and wished him well in his new life on Earth. Because of the outlandish content of the letter, it was believed by many to be a hoax, though it eventually would end up in a historical collection of letters concerning the Doctor.
