Making Change Possible
81s Heroes was formed in honor of our fallen hero, Sr. Patrolman Sherman O. Benys, Jr., KPD Badge No. 81, whom we lost in the line of duty on November 4, 2021.
The organization, 81s Heroes, was named to commemorate ALL those that were engaged on that catastrophic day. It is they who have given us the strength to continue to “Make It Happen.” They will Forever be 81s Heroes.
