The New York Police & Fire Widows' & Children's Benefit Fund's mission is to provide assistance to the families of New York City Police Officers, Fire Fighters, Port Authority Police and EMS Personnel who have been killed in the line of duty. The Benefit Fund gives financial assistance to grieving families immediately after they lose their loved one and since these families often must bear the burden of life-long financial hardship, the Benefit Fund, for its entire history, has made an annual distribution to each widow and widower as well. The charity's goal is to raise enough funds to provide meaningful annual distributions to the families of fallen Firefighters, Police Officers, Port Authority Police and EMS personnel for the remainder of their lives.
