DONATE A Note About Giving The Florida Sheriffs Association encourages donors to scrutinize how funds are used before making donations. The National Charities Information Bureau recommends that at least 65 percent of a group’s annual budget go to the purpose for which the money was raised. The Florida Sheriffs Association’s track record exceeds that minimum. In fact, approximately 78 percent of FSA’s annual revenues go directly into programs that enhance law enforcement in all counties throughout the state. FSA does not employ telemarketers and welcomes the scrutiny of all Florida citizens on financial matters.
