HELPING THOSE WHO HELP US ALL

Annual 9/11 Heroes Run

The Travis Manion Foundation annually welcomes runners, ruckers, and walkers of all ages to honor and remember the heroes of September 11th. This event is critical to helping Americans fulfill a promise to never forget and share the significance of that day with future generations. Assist the Officer – Houston is very fortunate to be included as one of the benefiting recipients for this incredibly successful event held every September.

Heroes’ Gala

The annual gala recognizes and celebrates the amazing men and women of the Houston Police Department. Nominees are from the Houston Police Officers’ Union’s Officer/Investigator of the Month program. Each HPOU winner is automatically nominated to be the Heroes’ Gala Officer or Investigator of the Year, and the gala winners are invited to Washington DC for Police Week. The gala is held in March and sells out quickly!

The 2025 Gala tickets are on sale now! Visit https://one.bidpal.net/2025atogala/welcome for tickets and information

Houston World Series of Dog Show

The Houston World Series of Dog Shows graciously invites Assist the Officer and HPD K9s to
their annual dog show hosted every July at NRG to educate and interact with fellow dog lovers.
The dog show includes meeting our special HPD K9s, learning K9 first aid through
demonstrations, and learning more about Memorial Hermann’s Life Flight for critically injured
police dogs. ATO volunteers are present to discuss the Retired HPD K9 Fund that helps with the
veterinary costs incurred by handlers after our K9s retire. If you would like to learn more, please
