Honoring Heroes
Meet our
Board of Directors
The Todd Clifford Legacy Foundation is Run Entirely by Volunteers
Shannon Clifford
Founder & Board Chair
Occupation: Executive Director
​
Relation to Todd: Wife of 22 years
​
Why do you serve on the board of directors?
Todd spent his adult life serving others—first in the Army, and later in law enforcement. Serving on the TCLF Board of Directors allows me to carry forward his legacy of service. I hope it thrives for generations to come and stands as a living example for our sons—the kind of example Todd would be setting if he were still here.​
Jill Whitmore
Board Treasurer
Occupation: Finance Executive
​
Relation to Todd: Sister​
​
Why do you serve on the Board of Directors?
Todd's entire career was in public service, and everyone who knew him, loved him. I serve because I want his memory to stay alive, and so that his brothers and sisters in law enforcement and the miliary know that he still has their back.

I am deeply honored to serve on the TCLF board, carrying forward my brother Todd’s legacy of compassion and service to others. It is profoundly meaningful to me to help ensure that his spirit and impact continue to inspire and uplift the law enforcement and veterans’ community through the Foundation’s mission.

​
Why do you serve as an Advisor to the Board of Directors?
According to state regulations, I am not old enough to be a voting member on the TCLF board of Directors, so I serve as an advisor. I do this because I want to make sure the world remembers the kind of man my dad was and to honor him in a way he would be proud of.

​
why do you serve on the Board of Directors?
I was fortunate to meet Todd in college after his service in the Army. We began our law enforcement careers together at the Lakewood Police Department. My experience on the front lines is invaluable to the TCLF Board of Directors and to the veteran and law enforcement professionals we serve.
