Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!
I am excited to participate in the 38th Annual The Ben to the Shore, which supports the Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation!
On March 13th, 2020 Corporal James O’Connor #8162 was killed while serving a high risk warrant on a murder suspect in Philadelphias Frankford section. Jimmy would lay down his life that morning to try and make Philadelphia a safer place. It’s been 5 years and there’s not a day that goes by that we don’t think of him and miss him. Please consider donating to this wonderful organization that helps the children of fallen first responders and the seriously injured.
The Families Behind the Badge Children’s Foundation (FBBCF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit committed to improving the lives of children in the Greater Philadelphia and South Jersey area. We achieve this by providing necessary financial relief for the families of fallen or critically injured first responders (police officers, firefighters, EMTs); cultivating positive relationships and interactions between police officers and the children in the communities they serve; and providing mental and emotional wellbeing resources to first responders and their families.
