Because of you, we can make a difference!

Dear Friend,

On behalf of First Responders Children’s Foundation, we look forward to your support of our organization's mission to provide transformational programs and services to the children and families of first responders.

Now, more than ever, the job of a first responder is becoming increasingly dangerous and uncertain. Through our year-round programs, we are there for their children, especially in situations where the unimaginable happens.

Make a Donation

In 2023, we made significant strides but our job is not done yet. The following is a recap of our key successes:

· Scholarships: Provided over $1.1 million in scholarships to 415 children.

· Mental Health: Offered over 1,300 hours of free and confidential mental health counseling to children of first responders since the program’s inception in 2022. We achieved this by onboarding new partners to provide services and collaborating with first responder agencies across the country. We are actively providing support to children in six states.

· Bereavement & Line of Duty Death: Provided over $275,000 in Bereavement or Line Of Duty Death Emergency Financial Assistance Grants benefiting families with children who lost a first responder parent in the line of duty and families experiencing financial hardship.

· Community Engagement Events: Brought joy to more than 120,000 children through our Toy Express toy distribution events in over 145 communities with over 200 first responder agencies.

In addition, we expanded our programmatic footprint in Dallas, New Mexico and Oklahoma and strengthened our Board by adding engaged partners who believe in what we do. In 2024, we hope to continue our growth and focus on deepening our impact.

None of this would have been possible without generous donors and the first responder agencies that stand behind our mission.

Every dollar counts. If you would like to make a year-end donation in 2023, there is still time. Simply click here to support first responders across the country.

Wishing you a joyful holiday season and a safe and happy New Year!

Sincerely,
