The 100 Club of SETX Survivor's Fund
When a law enforcement officer or firefighter is killed in the line of duty, our community loses a public servant – but their family loses a parent, a partner, and a provider.
The 100 Club is the only charitable organization established to support the families of officers and firefighters killed while protecting us. We ensure that their family is not forgotten!
When tragedy strikes, the effects are devastating, and all too often it strikes in the form of a death or disabling injury of a law enforcement officer or firefighter. The 100 Club of Southeast Texas is here to provide immediate response to the needs of the family of a fallen officer or firefighter.
Due to the recent new and exciting realization of the Club’s Survivor Benefit Fund, the 100 Club of Southeast Texas representing Hardin, Jefferson and Orange counties proudly accepted the unprecedented $100,000.00 check donation from the Wilton P. & Effie Mae Hebert Foundation representatives.

Since our organization was founded in 1988, we’ve lost several first responders in the line of duty. The brave men and women who wear the badge go to work each day prepared to pay the cost to keep the law and order of Southeast Texas. The following men and women paid the ultimate cost for the safety of our community and for that, deserve the highest form of honor we can bestow… to never forget.
