Assistance for Officer Escamilla's Family

Donation protected
Officer Paul Escamilla was dedicated to both his family and his role within the Chicago Police Department. As a 17-year veteran of the force, Officer Escamilla was well known and loved by the community, and by his brothers and sisters on the force. Paul tragically passed on Monday, and is survived by his wife, Stacy, and three young children.  

Our deepest condolences go out to the Escamilla family, who have suffered an unthinkable loss. We are collecting donations to assist the Escamilla family as they process this tragedy. Each donation will go directly to the family, to provide financial assistance as they adjust to life after this devastating loss.

During difficult times, we turn to leadership to help make sense of these situations. Mayor Lori Lightfoot released the following statement: 
I am heartsick as we mourn the passing of beloved Chicago Police Officer Paul Escamilla. As a member of a CPD family and a 17-year veteran of the Department, he most recently served in the Rogers Park neighborhood where he was revered by his fellow officers and community members. Officer Escamilla earned more than 120 awards for his service, but the number of people he impacted is the true measure of his devotion, and that cannot be quantified. Our entire city offers our condolences to his wife, children, extended family, friends and CPD colleagues—and we mourn with them. 
“No one should feel they are alone or think they have nowhere to turn, especially our first responders. From the moment they put on their uniform, they answer a call that at any second may put their lives in danger or inflict trauma. That is why we, as a city, have an obligation to constantly strengthen the support network they have, and strive to end any negative perception of reaching out for help. Chicago’s first responders deserve nothing less.
