Description

We are looking for local businesses that are able to provide us with either gift certificates or products which we can raffle/auction at our annual event. Our 7th Annual Charity Dinner will take place in NY on 11/5/2021. This is our greatest fundraiser of the year and helps with so many of our supportive projects.

We are a non-profit,(501(c)(3)) volunteer peer support group dedicated in providing a confidential and supportive environment for police officers and their families to cope effectively with stresses experienced during a career in law enforcement. We provide psychological, practical supportive and physical health services.

Our primary mission, utilizing a specialized professional mental health network, is the prevention and reduction of suicide, martial problems, substance abuse, and stress-related psychological and physical disorders among our officers. All services are completely CONFIDENTIAL and job-protective. In the event of the injury or death of an officer, their brothers in blue, through the Foundation, will provide volunteer practical, financial, and emotional support to the families, including shopping, child care, home care, transportation, counseling, etc.

The Foundation will also provide routine health screening programs, educational programs, and other medical support services so police officers can take a proactive role in managing their physical, as well as their mental well-being.

These programs will dramatically benefit each municipality as well. Officers who are effectively managing their stress will be less likely to take sick days, and better able to make proper judgment calls, resulting in more effective policing, better utilization of resource, and reduced civilian complaints and civil liability.

Please consider donating to our annual fundraiser and supporting our organization in providing the support our police officers as well as their families need and deserve.
