When a Flagler County Sheriff's Office employee has a financial crisis, help is available, thanks to the Flagler Sheriffs Employees Assistance Trust, or FSEAT. The fund was the beneficiary once again of the sixth annual Sheriff's Gala, a black tie event held Feb. 1, at Hammock Beach Resort.

“My goal is to ultimately get the fund to a million dollars and hopefully after tonight we will be close to $700,000,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “We have assisted probably a dozen employees since the foundation started.” 

The event raised $80,000, according to a press release.

An award ceremony took place after dinner recognizing employees, volunteers, and citizens who serve as part of the Flagler County Sheriffs Office.
