Long Beach, CA (December 2017) – On December 13, 2017, Westar Associates made a charitable donation to the Long Beach Police Officers Memorial Widows Emergency & Scholarship Fund for the second year in a row.

Cobb, Chairman of the organization. “With your support, we will continue to be of assistance to the officers and their families.”
