CALEF
The Capital Area Law Enforcement Foundation was formed in 2016 after the deaths and shootings of law enforcement officers in Baton Rouge. What was the worst day in law enforcement history in Baton Rouge became a mission for CALEF. Officers died that day because of the quality of bulletproof vests they were wearing. CALEF made it its number one goal in raising money for the best bulletproof vests on the market. Since 2016 we have raised in excess of 2 million dollars and have gifted over 60 local law enforcement agencies with over 2,000 vests. Our problem is that ALL bulletproof vests expire after 5 years and process starts over. In these days of limited budgets, CALEF assists law enforcement agencies with the purchase of vests. We recently had a EBRSO deputy it in the middle of his chest with a bullet. The Angel Armor vest absolutely saved his life.
