CARE FOR COPS

David Post , Chairman

Founded in 1999 , Care for Cops is a 501 c ( 3 ) Not for Profit Organization dedicated to assisting the families of fallen law enforcement officers in the State of Georgia . Care for Cops provides immediate financial help to families of fallen officers when their regular sources of income have stopped and insurance as well as other payments are being processed . With the Line of Duty Death ( LODD ) of Holly Springs Officer Joe Burson on June 16 , 2021 , Care for Cops has financially assisted the families of 79 law enforcement officers who killed in the line of duty !
Sadly , the COVID-19 pandemic and other events have hindered our fundraising events ! We are asking for your assistance in helping to fill this void by making a donation by going to our website at www . care- 4cops . org . Officers across our State are faced with some of the greatest challenges we have ever experienced . Knowing their families will be taken care of if something happened to them should not be one of those concerns .
Please help us to serve the families of our fellow officers who lost their lives in the service of their communities . Any amount of a monthly donation would be greatly appreciated . May God bless us all and keep us strong !
