Today, approximately 225 first responders are killed in the line of duty each year, leaving behind their children and families.
It’s our mission to support those first responder family members left behind, to help them feel the strength of our community, and to honor their loved ones who have made the
ultimate sacrifice
First Responders Children’s Foundation supports, promotes, and facilitates educational activities and programs.
Programs like the NYPD Music Camp, the Gloucester Angling Camp and the Junior First Responders Firefighting Camp stimulate curiosity, confidence and the importance of following through on a commitment
