Manny's Heroic Story
A hero lost, but never forgotten.
On Friday, June 4th, Officer Enmanuel 'Manny' Familia responded to a 911 call for a drowning of 14-year old boy, Troy Love in Green Hill Pond in Worcester. Unfortunately, Officer Familia and Troy Love did not make it out of the water alive.
Not only did Worcester lose an incredible officer, they lost a brother, friend, and partner, who made a selfless decision, and ultimate sacrifice to save a life of a young man. Today, we honor and celebrate the life of the incredibly dedicated, loving, and compassionate person Manny was through THE MANNY 267 FOUNDATION, made by his beloved family.
The Familia family created this foundation in an effort to spread awareness of the hazards of drowning and how essential it is for first responders and the community to know how to swim safely. Our mission with the MANNY 267 Foundation is to raise funds to be able to donate Manny Tubes to every police department in the nation and to provide water safety training for officers and swimming lessons for kids to prevent this tragedy from ever happening again.
In honor of Manny, please join us in continuing his legacy by donating to the Manny 267 Foundation.
