EAGLEVILLE, PA, June 4, 2024 – Streamlight®, Inc., a leading provider of high-performance lighting and weapon light/laser sighting devices for the law enforcement market, has renewed its sponsorship of Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.) for the 25th year in a row. The company’s support helps to underwrite ongoing programs and activities for survivors of fallen officers. Streamlight’s 2024 contribution as a C.O.P.S. Guardian Sponsor totaled $146,000, including proceeds from recent sales of its ‘blue’ C.O.P.S. logoed products.
Streamlight supports C.O.P.S. by sponsoring multiple programs and svents throughout the year, culminating in this year’s National Police Weekend activities in Washington, D.C. where the company was the Presenting Sponsor at the 40th Anniversary Formal Celebration Gala on May 14. The company also is a sponsor of Law Enforcement United (L.E.U.), which helps to raise money for C.O.P.S. through Streamlight programs like “The Road to Hope” memorial bicycle ride. This year, L.E.U. is celebrating its 15th year in supporting the fallen and survivors.
“We are extremely proud to serve as a Guardian Sponsor of C.O.P.S. as it marks 40 years of supporting those who have lost loved ones in the line of duty,” said Streamlight President and Chief Executive Officer Ray Sharrah. “As a leading provider of lighting equipment for first responders, we remain steadfast in our commitment to not only provide tools to keep police safe, but also to assist C.O.P.S. in the important work it does for law enforcement. It is our honor to have served this fine organization for all these years.”
As part of its annual contribution, Streamlight earmarks $1.00 from the sale of each Blue Nano Light® for C.O.P.S. The keychain flashlight boasts a super bright white LED and a double-sided FOB that features the C.O.P.S. logo on one side and Streamlight’s logo on the other side. Streamlight also donates $2.00 from the sale of each Blue Siege® AA lantern, featuring one white and two blue LEDs, and the C.O.P.S. logo on its globe.
Today, more than 50 C.O.P.S. chapters nationwide provide resources to some 50,000 survivors, including immediate and extended families and co-workers of officers who have died in the line of duty.
