The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF) is pleased to announce that applications are now open for the Ambassador Program.
The Ambassador Program is a nationwide effort to support the vision of inspiring all citizens to value law enforcement and the vital role it plays in our society in tandem with NLEOMF’s mission to honor the fallen, tell the story of American law enforcement, and make it safer for those who serve.
When it comes to promoting programming through outreach, resources and education, NLEOMF depends on the support of a special group of volunteers: Ambassadors. Without the help of volunteers, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF) in Washington, D.C. would cease to exist.
“Ambassadors demonstrate their commitment by building awareness and generating support for the organization across the country, giving them the opportunity to participate – firsthand – in honoring the men and women whose names are engraved on the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial,” said Marcia Ferranto, CEO of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund. “We are grateful for their participation.”
The NLEOMF Ambassador program would not be possible without the generous support of MissionSquare Retirement. It is a year-round commitment to serve as a local NLEOMF liaison to law enforcement agencies by providing vital training and technical assistance to officers, as well as attending events as a representative of the organization.
As an ambassador, materials and training are provided including a custom name badge, a discount at the NLEOMF online store, a business card template, collateral materials, instructional support from the NLEOMF staff and more.
Eligibility requirements to be an Ambassador can be found on the Ambassador Program page. Individuals interested in completing an application must include a letter of recommendation and proof of law enforcement employment. Approval will be made by the Ambassador Selection Committee. All active, former and retired officers are encouraged to apply now.
