THPM Benefits

Death Benefit Trust Fund - Should an officer be killed in the line of duty, the beneficiary will receive $10,000 from the Museum.
Trooper Fund - When an officer is killed in the line of duty, the Museum establishes a fund with a local bank. Media are alerted to this fund and 100% of the donatations raised go directly to the family of the trooper. In the past few years over $60,000 has been raised and turned over to the families.
