The Mission of the Federal Law Enforcement Foundation

The Federal Law Enforcement Foundation (FLEF) was established in 1988 by a group of concerned business leaders who recognized that, despite the incalculable contribution law enforcement agents make to our quality of life, the economic protection they receive is often inadequate in the time of tragedy or disaster.

The Foundation was originally formed to support the Federal Bureau of Investigation by providing financial support to the families of FBI agents killed in action. As the Foundation grew, financial assistance was extended to all federal and local law enforcement agencies. Economic assistance was also offered to agents suffering from serious illness or recovering from a natural disaster and anti terrorist events.

The foundation is an IRS qualified, charitable organization. A certified audit is preformed annually. We operate on an all volunteer basis with no paid employees. We fund numerous programs in support of these agencies. Some of the programs are:

• Big Brother and Sister Program
• Inner-City Drug Reduction Programs Nationally
• Scouting Programs
• NYPD Vest Fund
• Executive Education Breakfast and Luncheon Programs
• CEO Day
• PBA Widows and Children’s Funds
• Financial assistance for police athletic leagues throughout the country
• Foreign Law Enforcement assistance programs
• Scholarship Program
• Heroes’ Night
• PAL Programs
• Wellness Centers

Our programs are in 200 communities and 9 foreign countries. They are made possible because of the generous donation we have received. We thank all of our supporters.

A totally voluntary Board of Directors operates FLEF. Every dollar contributed is put to work for law enforcement support. If you would like to make a donation to FLEF, please mail a check or money order to:
