In 2015, the Cycling Team established the HALOS Fund ( Helping and Loving Our Survivors) to assist and support the survivors of Dallas Police Officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice. HALOS is honored to support the Widows Luncheon, which is held in May at the Dallas Police Association, since 2016. The Fund provides Greenberg Turkeys to the families for Thanksgiving and creates Christmas ornaments using members' bicycle chains from the Police Unity Tour and Texas Peace Officer Memorial Rides. The fund helps purchase Christmas gifts for The Widows' and Orphans' Fund and assists with their Christmas luncheon. We are grateful to be in the position where we can invite one member from each surviving family to participate in the Police Unity Tour and cover 100% of the $1,800.00 registration and travel expenses.
Below are a few highlights of how we helped our survivors. This has been made possible in large part to CrossFit Heat's yearly donation as well as donations made by all of you!
