About Us

The Raleigh Police Memorial Foundation was founded in 2009 by a group of active and retired Raleigh police officers who are dedicated to honoring and remembering the Raleigh police officers who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting and serving others.

The founders of the Raleigh Police Memorial Foundation participate each May during National Police Week in the Law Enforcement United, Road To Hope Bike Ride, which is an annual 250 mile bicycle ride to Washington, DC. This year the ride will finish at the 9/11 memorial at the Pentagon. The ride honors fallen officers and raises funds for the families of fallen officers through Concerns of Police Survivors. The dream for the Foundation began in 2009 when the Raleigh officers who rode in this event returned with a vision to build a memorial that would honor the fallen Raleigh police officers and ensure that those officers who gave the ultimate sacrifice would never be forgotten.
