About Us

 

The Foundation for Fallen officers of Tennessee supports the families of fallen law enforcement officers in Tennessee whose deaths occur in the line of duty.

In the event of a death

 in the line of duty, the federal government and most states provide a death benefit that will help families recover; but it may take up to a year or more before the request goes through the channels necessary to reach the family of the fallen officer. In the mean time, the family has to suffer not only the death, but also financial hardship.

Since 2018

The Foundation for Fallen Officers of Tennessee provides a timely payment to the family of the fallen officer that will help with everyday purchases so the family can grieve the loss of the officer instead of worrying about financial hardships. The Foundation for Fallen Officers of Tennessee is committed to serving families of fallen officers in their time of need while they grieve the loss of their loved one.
