Mission

Shield616 was formed with two goals in mind: 1. We want to help protect our protectors by donating gear that specifically protects against rifle rated threats. We’ve curated an innovative armor package designed by street cops, for street cops. 2. We want to break down the barrier that exists between local law enforcement and citizens by asking local communities and churches to partner with each officer receiving gear. We exist to make kingdom impacts by protecting and serving those who serve and protect!
