Helping those who help us...

Over the years, there have been a growing number of our local Police, Fire and EMS professionals who have suffered severe and traumatic injuries and illnesses on and off duty. Unfortunately, there is only so much their insurance companies and the departments they work for can do to help. Responder Rescue will help those who have helped others in their time of need.

Firefighters from the St Louis area established Responder Rescue in 2009. They have seen first hand, during their careers, individuals who have been left financially and emotionally devastated after an unforeseen injury or illness. There is no way to prevent injuries or illnesses that strike individuals responding to emergencies. By supporting Responder Rescue, you can help make a difference. Many of our Police Officers, Firefighters and EMS workers who have been injured or devastated by illness have nowhere to turn for help and support. Responder Rescue will be an organization they can count on.

Responder Rescue's goal is to provide a non-profit organization that citizens can contribute to when asking themselves; "How can I help those individuals in need who have helped so many?" Responder Rescue will provide assistance to our responders through fundraisers and donations given by our citizens, communities and local corporations. Responders will not only receive financial assistance, but also a place where corporations or citizens can donate non-financial items that might be available.

Responder Rescue's goal, over time, is to provide assistance to any Police Officer, Firefighter or EMS worker who serve our communities in the surrounding areas.
