why we started.

Everyday Los Angeles Police Officers respond to thousands of calls for service. Officers see many situations where hard working families needing assistance, such as food, clothes, shoes, diapers, medications, utility bills paid and other necessities.  Many are parents working several jobs just to make ends meet. So often, it's not enough.

Badge of Heart desires to connect Officers with the proper aid to help these good families with financial burdens. 

This Organization was inspired and founded in 2014 by retired Los Angeles Police Officer Ken Lew. In 31 years of service, Officer Lew worked at Newton Street, 77th Division, South Bureau CRASH, Background Investigator, Central Division & Pacific Division. He witnessed and helped many families change their lives during his service.

Retired Officer Lew was born in Los Angeles. He was raised in the City of Inglewood, South Los Angeles and attended Schools in Westchester. Officer Lew wants to continue his Charity work and help those in need.
