Austin Haworth, the surviving son of Officer Amanda Haworth, now has a place to call to home. As a community, we must come together to care for the surviving children of officers that make the ultimate sacrifice. Amanda Haworth and Roger Castillo were killed in the line of duty on January 20, 2011. Since then, private organizations have come together to assist in building a home for Austin Haworth. On Tuesday, August 18, 2015, the Haworth family will be hosting an open house to show the community's selfless efforts in making a dream come true.
It is with great appreciation and sincere gratitude to all those listed below, who made a wish from a fallen officer's son, a reality:
