Peace Officers Research Association of California
Public safety has always been a dangerous profession, and our members put their lives on the line each and every day to help keep our families and communities safe. As part of POREF, PORAC’s in-house Fund-A-Hero fundraising platform allows us to monitor and administer the fundraising process from start to finish, providing financial relief to officers and their families who have been tragically impacted by a line-of-duty death, near fatal injury or catastrophic event.
