HUGS


Helping Uplift Grieving Survivors (HUGS) is a program formed by the ladies at Police Wives Online, a sisterhood of supportive women from all over the US who are all connected to the badge in one form or another - HUGS is a condolence and support program for families and departments who have lost a loved one or comrade in the line of duty. Many of the members of Police Wives Online volunteer their time as HUGS sisters. HUGS sisters provide an outreach system for grieving families in their area. They provide a card with their name, phone number, and email address should the surviving spouse or department wish to seek support.

While HUGS has many new programs in mind, they are in need of essential supplies and donations for the card program. Your donations will go toward the condolence card and outreach program as well as to the future planning of new programs.

There are two ways to support this program:
(1) monetary donation - Donate money at the Police Wives Online website!
(2) shopping through iGive - This comes at no additional cost to you. Just sign up and shop!

Let me stress that no donation is too small!
