“What HFA provided for the members of Boston EMS and their families after the Boston Marathon bombings is a feeling of appreciation that we could never be able to pay back. We are forever grateful. Today the HFA Fund provides the assistance needed to support training, education and equipment needs for emergency service departments.”

“As a former Emergency Medical Dispatcher/911 Call taker, Hero Fund America has given me a purpose. I have watched First Responders struggle on a daily basis with faulty equipment or lack of training due to budget restrictions. I can now give back and raise money to give them what they need so they can focus on being our heroes.”
