Thank An Officer Today

While monetary contributions to our organization are always greatly appreciated, a financial donation isn't the only way you can help or show your support. Police officers, firefighters and emergency operators work around the clock, missing out on family time during the weekends and weeknights in order to keep you safe. They are the men and women who are willing to step into danger to enforce our laws and are willing to lay down their lives to protect others.

By supporting the teams and individuals who work hard to keep us safe, you’ll be encouraging them to continue the work they do. You can show your support by attending law enforcement sponsored events, lending a hand to an officer or firefighter in your neighborhood with chores, writing a thank you letter, or encouraging your child to draw a picture for an officer that helped you or your family.

And never underestimate the power of a simple “Thank You!” Take time to acknowledge and extend courtesy to an officer when the opportunity presents itself.
