Support for law enforcement and their families.

Did you know that Georgia law enforcement officers are in the bottom 6* in the nation when it comes to pay? It's no wonder that, between the devastating events of each day, the demanding schedules, and the financial pressures, officers suffer from the highest rates of suicide* when compared against other professions. Consequently, this lifestyle affects the entire family in many ways. 

Bound by Blue, Inc., is a 501c3 organization dedicated to helping provide support for law enforcement families in times of financial need or crisis. Bound by Blue is also committed to providing education, resources, community outreach, and therapies to law enforcement families. In law enforcement the entire family unit serves which is why Bound by Blue works to support the whole family and not just the officer. 

As part of a law enforcement family, as well as a volunteer with Bound by Blue, I’ve seen how hardships often affect the families of our first responders. Please consider donating today to help  build law enforcement families up as they give so much to their communities each day. No donation amount is too large or too small; it all goes to help those who serve and is so appreciated.
