PBA and FOP, working together

PBA President Pat Lynch works closely with the National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO), with the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and with the New York State FOP and its President Frank Ferreyra. Among the activities sponsored and administered by the State FOP is its World Trade Center Police Disaster Relief Fund that has donated over $500,000 to families of PBA officers lost in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.
