On May 29, 2017, Cicero Police Officer Sanchez was responding to a call involving an armed subject when his marked patrol vehicle was struck by an impaired driver. The devastating collision caused his head and face to strike the interior of his vehicle, which subsequently caught fire. As a result, Officer Sanchez sustained a traumatic brain injury.

This year, the IPPFA Heroes Family Fund is honored to recognize Officer Sanchez as our special guest at the Heroes Holiday Gala, where he will be presented with a check to provide financial assistance.

We invite you to join us for an evening of celebration, generosity, and giving back to those who have dedicated their lives to serving and protecting our communities.
