Giving Is Even Easier Now!

The United Way Joins Hands With Officer Street Survival Training!

 

This is a very exciting announcement!  Those donations at work and outside of work now can be given to Officer Street Survival Training, Deputy James F McGrane, Jr.  The United Way of Central NM has joined hands with this Non-Profit Organization to enable them to continue providing this quality training for our NM Law Enforcement Officers. 

Jim and Rita McGrane, along with their Daughter Ida, founded this organization soon after their son and brother was killed during a routine traffic stop.  After the death of Bernalillo County, Deputy James F. McGrane, his family decided it was time to give the NM Law Enforcement Officers a step up on protecting themselves.  This training, provided by Calibre Press is available to all Law Enforcement Officers. Unfortunately, the state, city and local governments do not provide enough funds, if any,  for the officers to attend.  This left most officers without the needed training or having to pay for it themselves. 

Since this organization was founded, it has provided over 700 NM Law Enforcement Officers with this expert training, at no cost to them.  Now, the citizens of NM have the opportunity to allocate their donations to the United Way, either through your workplace/payroll or on their website, and give those donations directly to this Non-Profit Organization.  

You can learn more about The United Way of Central NM by going to their website:   http://www.uwcnm.org/

 

To designate your donation please use this code:  Officer Street Survival Training, JMOSST  

 

We thank all the citizens and businesses of NM that have given so generously.  Please don't forget about us this year.  Fundraising has begun for the 3rd Annual Officer Street Survival Training, March 2009.

 

Thank You United Way Of Central New Mexico! 

 

Be a part of keeping our officers safe so they can do their job to keep you and your family safe.
