Watch the 2025 Ceremony
We honored America’s brave first responders on National First Responders Day LIVE from Times Square. This special event pays tribute to the heroic men and women who protect and serve our communities.
They Support Us Every Day. Give $9.11 / Month & Support Them.
Every day, in every community, first responders answer the call, rushing to emergencies to protect us and provide us with safety, security and peace of mind—knowing they are there whenever we need them. In recognition of National First Responders Day on October 28th, we invite you to “Sound the Siren” and give back to those who never hesitate to show up when we need them most—often leaving their families and risking their lives for us.
Whether it’s through a purchase with purpose, a gift of flowers, a message of thanks, or a donation to the First Responders Children’s Foundation, your gesture in support of first responders and their families will offer a moment of gratitude and peace for the people who make our communities safer.
