Hearts of Gold had the honor of supporting Chief Kasmar and several other Department Members as they participated in the 2024 Unity Ride. This is an annual event that raises awareness of law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty and raises funds for several national law enforcement charitable organizations. It culminates in Washington DC for National Police Week. The TPD members participating joined over 1,000 other law enforcement officers for the 250-mile ride.

Along the route they met many families of fallen officers. Hearts of Gold supported the ride financially and provided Beanie Bears for the team to hand out to the families along the way. We are so proud of these awesome Department Members who represented TPD in this event honoring fallen officers across the country.

Get ready for the 14th Annual Gaslight Theater Fundraiser! Tickets will go on sale in September and usually sell out fast so keep an eye on your email for that announcement!

The Hearts of Gold Board of Directors remains committed to providing financial assistance to Department members who have suffered a catastrophic event causing financial hardship.

This year, Hearts of Gold passed an incredible milestone of providing over half a million dollars to Department members in need. To date, Hearts of Gold has provided over
