#Fairfield Connecticut–6/22/2016– Wednesday the Fairfield Police Union Scholarship Fund presented checks to their scholarship winners.
In addition to the 18 scholarships given out internally to our children we also have awarded $4,000.00 at our public High schools. The high school awards are being given out on 6/15/16 on awards night at the High school.
The Fairfield Police scholarship fund was started in 2014 by Lt. Keith Broderick as a way to help
reduce the high cost of college for the children of our police officers. The fund has grown
tremendously in the last two years and every officer in the department contributes every year
toward the fund.
There are also many fundraisers that take place throughout the year that benefit the fund. This
year two high school students each received 1000.00 dollars toward their education.
