About Us

I would like to introduce you to St. Louis, MO’s first non-for-profit organization that has been developed to help the families of fallen or injured security officers in the line of duty. There are more than one million security officers deployed in the United States of America. 

Many are killed or severely injured in the line of duty. Police officers and firefighters have organizations that help raise money to assist in difficult times. It is about time someone helped our security officers in the same manner. 

In steps Edward Trotter, Ed, has been working as a licensed security officer in the St. Louis area for over 23 years. He has seen the good and the bad of our industry. His plan was developed to be a difference maker in our field. 

He started Guardians ST. Louis to help. A nonprofit organization made up of veterans in the private security industry, the Guardians look to make an impact helping these security officers and their families when tragedy strikes. 

Edward Trotter is the Founder and CEO and will be assisted by Mike Dwyer as the President. Mike Dwyer has been in the private security industry for over 30 years.
