This newsletter reflects the strength of that mission in action. From our member dinners and community events, to programs that bring comfort and connection to the families of fallen heroes, every effort highlights what we can achieve together. Your ongoing support continues to fuel our ability to give back and serve.
Looking ahead, we’re excited to announce the upcoming launch of the new K-9 & Friends facility. This new initiative is dedicated to provide support for retired K-9s and mounted horses, who have faithfully served alongside our officers and we aim to make sure they receive the same compassion and care they’ve helped provide to others.
Thank you for your commitment, generosity, and belief in our mission. Together, we’re not only protecting those who protect us, but ensuring their families, and even their four-legged partners, are supported every step of the way.
Andy Mitchell
Chairman of the Board
Broward Sheriff’s Advisory Council

On Saturday, November 22nd, we joined BSO at the Public Safety Building and provided over 500 families with a turkey and all the traditional holiday fixings. Families were hand-selected by School Resource Officers to ensure the meals reached those most in need.
Thank you to everyone who donated, packed, distributed, and made this day possible. Your kindness allowed these families to enjoy a special Thanksgiving meal together.
