Hello all!
You may have seen information about the Nebraska Troopers Charity, Inc. a 501(c)3 non-profit (separate from STAN/SLEBC which are both 501(c)5 non-profits) doing a fundraiser for the Henrichs family following his line of duty injury last month. The tax status is a benefit for those that wish to donate.

First and foremost, Ryan is not one to ask for any help and probably doesn't love the fact we are doing this, but Michaela and Ryan - along with their family are so appreciative. The support they have felt, and the kindness has been amazing. This fund is truly helping her (them) out in ways we will never know - alleviating the stress of her not being able to bring her normal income home and really focus on helping Ryan get better. The funds will also be used to help with some unexpected expenses that workers comp has not (yet? ) covered - time will tell.

I wanted to be sure to pass along a few different platforms that we are using to help the family out. We have purposefully not used Ryan's name, but if people put two and two together, they can probably figure out that Michaela is Ryan's wife via social media or by contacting our office or phoning a friend. As most of you, keeping things on the DL is what Ryan prefers.
