Board of Directors

A unique tradition of families helping families.

Frank J. Battaglia, a former Baltimore Police Department officer who was Commissioner of the Department from 1981-1984, understood that daily police work is stressful and that an unexpected personal emergency could create an overwhelming situation for police personnel and their families. So, in 1982, Commissioner Battaglia called upon a group of civilians — personal friends, colleagues and members of prominent families in the Baltimore community — to devise a way to help active police personnel when they experience off-duty financial hardships. This independent body, consisting of business owners, philanthropists, and community leaders, formed the Frank J. Battaglia Signal 13 Foundation, a not-for-profit 501(c) (3) organization.

Current and past members of this passionate, dedicated group of people striving to make the communities we serve — Baltimore and beyond — a better place, include:
