Badge Of Honor Memorial Foundation
Advocates for Families of Law Enforcement Officers Slain in the Line of Duty.
Supporting Families of Fallen Officers
The Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation is dedicated to helping the survivors and departments of officers killed in the line of duty secure all available statutory benefits. It also offers training to law enforcement agencies on casualty planning, preparing them in advance for the potential of a line-of-duty death.Every two days, an officer loses their life in the line of duty. Most come from small towns or counties that you may never have heard of, and their deaths rarely make the front page. Of the 21,000 law enforcement departments in the U.S., the vast majority have never faced the loss of an officer and may not know where to turn for help when it happens.

Mission Statement
When officers give their all, we owe it to their families to do the same
In recent years, there has been a troubling rise in the number of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty. Police departments, organizations, and families have given so much to us all. At the Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation, we are dedicated to serving and supporting the families of those who protect and serve.
- When officers risk everything for our safety, we must stand by their families.
- Protecting those who serve means supporting the families they leave behind.
- Our duty is to ensure no fallen officer’s family is left without help.
- Honor the sacrifice of every officer by ensuring their loved ones are cared for
Why We Exist
Always a Reason to Stand with the Families of Fallen Officers
The Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation (BOHMF), recognized by the Bureau of Assistance under the Department of Justice, is here to help. We proactively reach out to departments within 24 hours of a line-of-duty death to provide vital information on available federal and state benefits. Many departments lack the resources for casualty planning or legal support for families. We are committed to standing by these families when they need it most.
A widow should not be overwhelmed by paperwork. A daughter should not miss college because no one knew how to secure the benefits owed to her. An already stretched police department should not have to fundraise for a fallen colleague’s family. We exist to advocate, express gratitude, and honor the sacrifice of those who ensure our safety.
