OUR MISSION
The First Responder Outreach Foundation has three main focuses...
Emergency Relief FundTo maintain an Emergency Relief Fund for Southwest Virginia First Responders and their immediate family members should the responder be tragically injured or killed in the line of duty. |
Resource PoolWe provide a pool of resources for all things First Responder. We aim to serve departments and/or individuals (paid or volunteer) who are searching for supplies, equipment, training, grants, mental health services, and more! |
FundraisersWe create fundraisers for our First Responders who are in need, should they fall into unforeseen hardships or are diagnosed with severe illness. Fundraisers are held as needed and are separate from the Emergency Relief Fund. |
