What is Tarrant County Blue?

Tarrant County Blue (TCB) is an organization that now boasts more than 40 Board Members that include civic dignitaries, police officials, city and state government representatives, and many other area leaders of business and industry.

“What we learned through extensive research is that police officers’ death benefits barely cover the cost of burial,” says Greg Morse, chairman of Tarrant County Blue. “The cash gift we give each fallen officer’s family is not tied to anything except the community’s love and appreciation.”

The life of a police officer is filled with the unknown.

And while risk of life and safety is part of the pledge every officer willingly makes to serve and protect his or her community, how does the community repay this unselfish personal commitment?

When a Fort Worth, Texas, teenager brought this question to the attention of her father and then a group of prominent local leaders and many concerned others, they put their heads and hearts together and established Tarrant County Blue to create the opportunity for tangible expressions of appreciation for Fort Worth police officers, especially in time of loss.

How Does it Work?

  • Each member pays $100 to join; there are no additional organizational expenses.
  • There are no meetings, unless there is a question concerning distribution of funds.
  • When an officer falls in the line of duty, each TCB member donates $100 to the officer’s family.
  • Whenever a TCB member sees a police officer in public, he or she anonymously pays for the officer’s meal, haircut, movie, or other service—always accompanied by the message, “We appreciate what you do in our community”.

“The number one reason TCB exists is to provide a cash donation to each fallen officer’s family to express his or her community’s heartfelt condolence and appreciation,” says Logan Morse, founding chairman. “And the more people we can attract to join this worthwhile cause, the larger the amount we can contribute.”

Junior Board

The organization has also formed a junior board which will be comprised of young adults (high school). In lieu of the $100 membership fee, teen members will be asked to donate 100 hours. These hours will include assisting with things such as babysitting, yard mowing, and the mentoring and tutoring of children of the fallen officer’s family.
