Lucky® Partners With The Washington DC Police Foundation
PWPORG is helping to support the wonderful work by the Washington DC Police Foundation with youth across the city through donations of books, educational videos and resources related to navigating through the pandemic; a partnering with purpose which honors the selfless work by the Foundation and the Women and Men on the frontlines. Our first tribute is to one of those heroes, Senior Police Officer Keith Williams.
Senior Police Officer Keith Williams, a 31 year veteran of the Washington DC Metropolitan Police Department passed away on
June 5th, 2020 as a result of COVID-19.Officer Williams was assigned to the Youth Division, an assignment to him, which was an extension of his own family, he loved it so much. The Executive Director of the Police Foundation, Asst Chief Patrick Burke (ret MPD) commented: “Officer Williams was one of our Junior Cadet mentors, a great cop and a dear friend of the Foundation. He was incredibly passionate about working with our youth and is directly responsible for bridging the gap between the police and the community. His life epitomizes what we stand for and the impact that a police officer can have on a young person’s life. This last year, Keith supported our Seaton Junior Cadets, which was a class of 26 5th grade boys. Those students adored Officer Williams and were constantly smiling and joking with him; all while learning important lessons on safety and policing. He will be incredibly and profoundly missed by everyone who knew him, and we will always remember his kind heart and compassion for others
