If I graduate the MA Police Academy by June 14, every pledge below goes to the Massachusetts Law Enforcement Memorial Fund.

Six months ago I quit a comfortable job to do the thing I've talked about since I was nine years old. The academy is the hardest thing I've ever done — 5am runs, defensive tactics, and more studying than college ever asked of me.

I don't want your money. I want your name on this wall, so that on the mornings I want to quit, I can look at who's counting on me. If I walk across that stage, you pay up — and every dollar honors officers who gave everything.
