SOP 211.03   Fleetwood Memorial Foundation

 

Mr. W.I. Fleetwood established the Fleetwood Memorial Foundation in 1974 out of gratitude and respect for the men and women of Texas who dedicate their lives to the safety of the public.

 

The Foundations purpose is to provide virtually instant no- strings attached grants of $1,000 to $5,000 to certified Texas Law Enforcement or Fire Protection Personnel who are injured in the performance of their duties or to the families of such personnel who are killed in the performance of their duties. The grants are designed to provide immediate financial relief to meet unexpected expenses until insurance or more permanent sources of funds can be arranged.

 

The Fleetwood Foundation has provided grants to qualified recipients since the foundation inception in 1974.

 

Applications for Fleetwood grants may be made by any Texas Law Enforcement or Fire Protection Agency, on behalf of qualified personnel injured or killed in the performance of their duty.

 

APPLICATION PROCEDURES

 

The application for a grant will be processed through any Officer of the department.
