The California Highway Patrol 11-99 Foundation is an IRS-recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit, charitable organization that provides emergency, death, and scholarship benefits to California Highway Patrol family members. Incorporated in 1981, the members of the Foundation's Board of Directors have provided over $16 million in assistance to current, retired and fallen in the Line of Duty CHP employees and their families.
The organization's name is taken from the radio code "11-99" which means "Officer Needs Assistance - Send Location to All Units". [1]
