Our Story

Meet David Post, Chairman of Care for Cops. David has over 50 years of security and management consulting experience, in addition to his full-time law enforcement background In Georgia. He also has over forty years as a sworn deputy sheriff and reserve commander.

In 1999, a group of individuals from the Metro Atlanta Crime Commission decided that a great way to help families of law enforcement officers who were killed in the line of duty would be to organize a charity. A motorcycle ride was planned and called Care for Cops Ride For Law Enforcement.

The Care for Cops Motorcycle Ride started at Stone Mountain Harley-Davidson and ended at Lake Lanier Islands. During the motorcycle rides, Gwinnett, DeKalb, and Cobb County Police Departments, as well as other members of local law enforcement agencies, escorted the riders on this annual event. The Care for Cops Organization thanks these groups for their contributions to the success and safety of the ride. At each ride, we saw all types of motorcycle manufacturers and riders of every type. Participants had opportunities to win door prizes, including motorcycle gear, artwork, t-shirts, hats, jackets, and custom cooking grills. In addition, music was played; food and vendors were also provided for everyone’s enjoyment. One year, during the Care for Cops Motorcycle Ride, participants were encouraged to show off their motorcycles at the Biker’s Showcase. This event was not only fun, but also recognized law enforcement’s efforts and helped raise money for the families of other fellow officers. Since 2000, the Care for Cops Motorcycle ride, golf tournaments, and 5ks have allowed us to financially help the families of the fallen heroes.
