Thank you to Running 4 Heroes Inc.; a 501 (c) 3 that honors the brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice to protect their communities.
What started as a young resident running in his community has certainly gone above and beyond all expectations.
Fallen Hero Flag Mission – Every mile that is run for our fallen First Responders, our mission will send the flag that was carried to the family and/or agency of the fallen hero along with a handwritten note.
Injured First Responder Grant Program – Each month, a donation with a minimum of $10,000 will be given to a First Responder Injured in the Line of Duty. As of October 2022, Running 4 Heroes has awarded over $347,000 in these grants.
K9 Grant Program – Each month, a different K9 Officer will be provided with a ballistic vest and/or safety equipment as part of our Running 4 Heroes K9 Program. As of October 2022, we have awarded nearly $25,000 in equipment and monetary donations to these K9 Officers.
Family of the Fallen Beneficiary Fund – When a First Responder is lost in the Line of Duty and leaves behind children 17 years of age or younger, with the agency/family blessing, RFH’s spearheads fundraising campaigns to help financially support the families of these fallen heroes. As of October 2022, Running 4 Heroes has awarded over $258,000 to these families.
Tribute Hall – In October of 2022, Running 4 Heroes officially opened the Tribute Hall in Winter Springs, Florida. This 1,800 square foot Tribute Hall is connected to the main R4H headquarters, and helps RFH continue to honor our fallen heroes. It also provides a place for the families of our fallen to reflect on their heroes, and for future children to be inspired by the mission. From stories of the heroic 9/11 efforts to recently fallen heroes lost in the Line of Duty, this Tribute Hall is a powerful place that will forever honor our fallen heroes and provide anyone visiting Central Florida a place to honor our fallen.
Headquarters/Unofficial P.D. Substation – The Running 4 Heroes Headquarters in Winter Springs, Florida has become an unofficial substation for our local Police Department. To ensure that our local Officers have what they need, RFH stocks the kitchen with various food and beverages, with office space, so that our local First Responders are hydrated, nourished, and healthy.
Travel Mission – Having the opportunity to meet the youth of this mission means so much to our First Responders and our Surviving Families. Your support makes those opportunities possible.
Please consider donating today and helping us show support to our First Responders, their Families, their Communities as well as our K9 Officers and Military.
