On Friday, November 12th, the International Association of Chiefs of Police hosted a reception in Los Angeles, California to support the National Law Enforcement Museum. Steven Bocho, creator of the hit show NYPD Blue was honored at the event for his artistic contributions to helping the public understand the daily life of law enforcement. Other guests include Dennis Franz, Kim Delaney, the cast of NYPD Blue and Carl Lewis. Proceeds from the event went to support the construction of the National Law Enforcement Museum. The NLEOMF thanks all the event sponsors and especially the organizers and hosts of this unprecedented reception:
- Los Angeles Police Chief Bill Bratton
- Cynthia Brown, Publisher of American Police Beat
- Bob Baker, President and Ted Hunt, Director of the Los Angeles Police Protective League
As a supporter of law enforcement, you are also perfectly positioned to help build the National Law Enforcement Museum. Two of the most important things you can do right now are:
- Become a Law Enforcement Ambassador (LEA). LEAs help raise awareness and funds for the Museum, and ask their colleagues to get involved as well. In return, LEAs get exclusive benefits. For more information, call (202) 737-3400 or email lea@nleomf.com.
- Invest in A Matter of Honor: Give a gift to help build the Museum. Send your check, payable to: The National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, 400 7th Street (NW), Suite 300, Washington, D.C. 20004.
Contributions for the capital campaign will be used to pay the costs of developing, building, equipping and operating the museum. These costs may include predevelopment work, planning, fundraising and other activities involved in building and operating the museum.
