Established
in Houston, Texas in 1953, The 100 Club is a well-recognized
organization within the communities it serves. The 100 Club
began when 100 men, each contributing $100, wanted to help
the families of Houston Police Officers who were killed in
the line of duty.
The
effort put forth by these men has developed into over a half century
of support for law enforcement in not only Harris County,
but seventeen surrounding counties – Austin, Brazoria,
Brazos, Burleson, Chambers, Colorado, Fayette, Fort Bend,
Galveston, Grimes, Liberty, Madison, Montgomery, San Jacinto,
Walker, Waller, and Washington counties. In October 2001,
The 100 Club reached another milestone in its history by providing
benefits to the dependents of Firefighters killed in the line
of duty.
The
continued growth of The 100 Club is only possible through
its members and donations made from the community. Your membership
helps The 100 Club continue to support the Law Enforcement
Officers and Firefighters that protect you. |
