COPS, Inc. (Concerns of Police Survivors, Inc.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, which was founded in concept in 1983 when ten young law enforcement widows sat around a table and talked about the emotional upheaval they had experienced over the loss of their law enforcement spouses in the line of duty.
With an average of 130 to 150 law enforcement officers dying in the line of duty each year in this country, COPS’ membership continues to increase. There are no membership dues to join our organization, for the price paid is already too high.
The Mid-Atlantic Police Motorcycle Riding Committee is dedicated to supporting COPS and the COPS Kids program through our annual police motorcycle training event held each September. Proceeds from the raffle of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle help fund the event and have also allowed the Mid-Atlantic Police Motorcycle Riding Committee to donate over $226,000 to the COPS Kids program over the past 12 years.
The Committee is grateful to all of our supporters who allow us to assist the survivors of our fallen brothers and sisters.
If you would like to become a Sponsor of this very worthy cause, Please contact Officer S. Lockard at mapmrcpres2012@gmail.com
