The DEA’s Widows’ and Children’s Fund was established as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity to assist our members in need. The Fund tends to the health and welfare of the families of deceased DEA members, primarily in the form of health benefits and assistance with excessive medical bills. When an active DEA member dies, the DEA provides a $10,000 funeral expense to the family and then provides full DEA health benefits to the surviving spouse and children until the youngest child reaches the age of 19. You can read more about the Widows’ and Children’s Fund on its special section on this website.
