Welcome to the website of

Greetings. 

I am honored and proud to serve as the President of the 200 Club of Jacksonville, which has served Northeast Florida for over 50 years!  With the exception of our members and those in law enforcement and fire/rescue, there are few people in the Northeast Florida area who are familiar with our organization.  Since its founding in 1972, the 200 Club has given over a half million dollars, in times of great need and tragedy.   As a result, all of our members are extremely proud of the Club’s work and service.  Despite the foregoing, the 200 Club does not maintain a high public profile. Our members believe that the 200 Club’s support and efforts behind the scenes ensures that our focus remains strictly humanitarian.

What is the 200 Club and who does it serve?  The 200 Club is an organization that believes in serving those who are sworn to serve and protect us every day.  Our primary mission is to provide financial assistance to the families of law enforcement officers and firefighters who have lost their lives in the line of duty, or who may have otherwise suffered loss or damage through injury, illness or other misfortune.

While our mission is to provide support to the families of our first responders, law enforcement officers and firefighters who have lost a spouse and parent, the 200 Club hopes and prays that it never has to fulfill that mission.  Nevertheless, when such a loss does occur, the 200 Club provides immediate financial assistance to the family of the fallen officer to allow the family time to heal by easing the financial burden created by such a tragedy. 

The 200 Club extends its heartfelt gratitude to the men and women first responders who put their lives at risk every day to serve and protect the citizens of Northeast Florida. Thank you for your part in our vision as the 200 Club supports such courageous and dedicated public servants.

Respectfully,

Wade M. Hampton
President, 2023-2025
