"Though we cannot safely gather for in-person National Police Week activities this May, fallen officers and their surviving loved ones should not be forgotten. We’ve set a goal to light 22,611 virtual candles; one for each name on the Memorial. As a compassionate supporter, you can pay tribute to law enforcement by lighting a virtual candle with a personal message of respect, honor, or remembrance," NLEOMF said.
NLEOMF said in March that it plans to hold a live Candlelight Vigil on Thursday Oct. 14.
