Question Need LEO advice?

I'd like to make a donation to an organization that can do some good for the 4 LEO families up here in the Seattle area.
Does anyone have any input as to whether this outfit is a good one to do it through?

Behind the Badge Foundation, Washington State

Thanks!

I can't actually answer your question, as I am not in Wa. and don't know that foundation. But, more often than not, someone from the PD or a family member will set up a trust account or similar and you can contribute directly to that, ensuring the entire contribution goes where you intend. Maybe call the Public Information Officer or similar for the Lakewood PD?

Again, I don't know the foundation and am not saying anything about it.

Default Here's the link

Go to the Lakewood Police Independent Guild website. There is a link at the top to donate. Web page is LPIG

(COPS is also good, as is NLEOMF, but donations to them do not necessarily go directly to the families, but to overall efforts and programs.)
