Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Leadership Awards
The Utah 1033 Foundation has created a Leadership Awards program dedicated to supporting children and dependents of active Utah law enforcement officers in their pursuit of higher education.
Our Leadership Awards Program offers its grants each Spring, on a competitive application basis, to dependents of active Utah law enforcement officers who are seniors in high school or already enrolled in an accredited institution of higher learning, and who meet other qualifying criteria as detailed in each year’s application packet. Each Award is given in honor of Utah’s fallen heroes, so that their names and their sacrifice will be remembered for generations to come.
Fallen Officers Fund
The Utah 1033 Foundation provides immediate financial assistance to the families of fallen police officers. Within 24 hours of a confirmed, qualifying line-of-duty death, a representative from The Utah 1033 Foundation will visit with the family of the fallen officer and present a check to them in the amount of $25,000.
Police officers in Utah have death benefits that vary from agency to agency. One common thread among them is that these payments are not available to dependents for some time. The 1033 provides support for immediate, unavoidable expenses, such as funeral arrangements and travel, as well as essential daily expenses like mortgages and groceries. We cannot take away a family’s grief, but our contribution can help, and it makes a significant impact during a very difficult time.
Family Education Trust Fund
When a Utah peace officer makes the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, surviving family members are left not only with the deepest grief and immediate need for financial assistance, but with legitimate fear for their lifelong dreams and aspirations. The Utah 1033 Foundation hopes to mitigate that fear by providing additional dollars to each surviving family to offset education costs for the fallen hero’s qualifying dependents.
