The Hundred Club of Connecticut is a charitable, nonprofit organization chartered in 1967 for the specific purpose of assisting the families of Police Officers, Firefighters, and Correction Officers who lose their lives in the line of duty. During its 59 years of existence, the Club has aided the families of 109 Police Officers, 150 Firefighters and 7 Correction Officers who made the supreme sacri
fice. Gifts totaling over $14,979,036 have been made to these families. The Club, through its staff and Directors, maintains a confidential assessment of family needs and, when necessary, provides help in meeting unexpected expenses and pressing obligations that can overwhelm the family. Arrangements may also be made for other professional services that may be required. A continuing tradition of the Club is to provide the surviving spouse and children with extra funds and gifts during the holiday season to make it a joyful time of year. It is a unique and most prestigious organization of its kind in the nation. Connecticut’s Club reaches every corner of the state, servicing families of all Firefighters (paid and volunteer), CT P.O.S.T.

Our organization’s benefits are so diversified and all encompassing, that our charity has become a model for others to emulate.
