Fallen Officer Foundation Ball

Saturday February 11, from 5:30 to 11:00 p.m. • Coconut Grove Ballroom, Santa Cruz
By Donna Lind, President, Fallen Officer Foundation

Your local first responders need your support. From the recent fires in California to the tragic murder of police officers nationwide, those who wear a badge today face real challenges. Beyond shift work and missed holidays, first responders bear witness to great tragedies and human suffering. The cost of this heroic work often manifests in the form of post-traumatic stress.

Firefighters fight the flames and comfort the families who have lost everything. Police officers notify the anxious of lost loved ones. Paramedics race against time to resuscitate the fallen. In all these endeavors, there is an emotional toll. Every day our first responders pay that toll and return to duty. We invite you to pay them back.

The Fallen Officer Foundation stands ready to render aid to local first responders and their families. It is a privilege to assist the men and women who serve as guardians of our communities. With your help we can continue our mission.
