I was called by Association of Police Officers. I was happy to pledge $75 since I have 2 brother in laws that are NYS Troopers. But after I received the support envelope, I decided to do some research before I sent off my hard earned $$. NO money goes to the families of deceased officers. In 2014, they raised $401,401. Total expenses for the organization were $380,296, of which $345,269 was paid to the professional fundraising company. Do the math... that leaves $21,105. How many educational programs can that support? Not many... I don't know where that $21,105 went but I'd be willing to bet it wasn't to any family of an officer killed in the line of duty. Shame on this organization.

Received a phone call from Ernest, who then put the "verifier" Andre on the phone. Called from 631-995-3194 and informed me the money they would send would be spent on "youf education" and community outreach for murdered Police Officers. SCAM ALERT

CAUTION: DO NOT DONATE TO THIS ORGANIZATION.

A review of the financial reports and filings show that this charitable organization pays out nearly all of its charitable contributions to fundraising expenses. There is little to no evidence in their filings to show contributions have been made to support the cause for which donations and charitable contributions are being solicited. Based on their filings, this charitable organization does not seem to support Police Officers and their families. It's filings clearly show that it generates funds to support professional fund raising activities.
