Please help by donating to the family of Worcester Police Officer Emmanuel “Manny” Familia.

On the afternoon of Friday, June 04, 2021, Officer Familia made the ultimate sacrifice when he perished attempting to save a 14 year old boy who was reported to have drowned at a pond in Worcester, Massachusetts.

Officer Familia along with four other officers entered the water in an attempt to locate and rescue the 14 y.o. victim and to secure the other individuals who were also in the water and were struggling to remain above water. During this rescue attempt two individuals were brought to shore. At this time, officers on scene were notified that one officer was missing. There were now two victims and one of the victims was Officer Familia.

Officer Familia is a five year Veteran of the Worcester Police Department and leaves behind his wife Jennifer,
13 y.o. Son Jovan and 17 y.o. Daughter Jayla. Jayla is graduating from high school and Jovan is a star shortstop of his little league team.
