In May 1997 the Police Unity Tour was organized by Officer Patrick Montuore of the Florham Park, NJ Police Department, with the hope of bringing public awareness of Law Enforcement Officers who have died in the line of duty & to honor their sacrifices. We started in 1997 with 18 riders on a four-day fund-raising bicycle ride from Florham Park, NJ lớn the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington D.C. Which raised $18,000.00. This past May (2022) we had over 2200 members nationwide who made the trip, and we are proud lớn announce that we were able khổng lồ donate 2.0 Million Dollars to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund bringing our total donations to more than $ 33 Million Dollars over their history.
In late 2005, the Police Unity Tour pledged $5 million in tư vấn of the National Law Enforcement Museum. Inspired by our commitment & our motto, "WE RIDE FOR THOSE WHO DIED" the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund has selected our organization lớn be the sponsor of the Museum"s Hall of Remembrance.
Having completed the $5 million commitment khổng lồ the museum in 2009 the Police Unity Tour dedicated the 2010 ride khổng lồ the restoration of the walls of the National Law Enforcement Officer"s Memorial. The $1.1 million restoration project included the re-engraving, coating và sealing of the 18,983 names on the memorial as well as the cleaning of the walls và other Memorial improvements.

In 2011 the Police Unity Tour became the official sponsor of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund’s “Officer of the Month Program”. Officers of the Month are honored at a special awards dinner each May in Washington, DC during National Police Week, và they are featured in the Memorial Fund’s annual calendar. The Police Unity Tour is also proud to lớn sponsor the NLEOMF’s “Recently Fallen Alerts”.
