​A 501(C)(3) NONPROFIT FOR OUR FIRST RESPONDER HEROES

OUR MISSION

The First Responder Outreach Foundation has three main focuses...

Emergency Relief Fund

To 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 Pool

We 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!
​

Fundraisers

We 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.
