Why we do this
First Responders are community heroes. They put their lives out on the line to protect us and serve our communities. With their deep-rooted discipline, perseverance, and character, they serve us, each and every one of us, with no reward in mind other than our safety. We are inspired by this mentality. We believe that these heroes deserve much more than just our respect. That is why we decided to show our appreciation for their incredible service to our communities by providing them with a service of our own. Please join us in our mission of giving the children of our community’s First Responders a chance to change their lives forever.
