About NATIONAL FIRST RESPONDERS FUND

The National First Responders Fund (NFRF) is a San Francisco‑based 501(c)(3) public charity founded in 2017 to provide financial support, training, peer support, and program funding for firefighters, police, EMS, dispatchers and other first responders affected by occupational trauma. The organization’s EIN (82-3266569) and tax‑exempt status were confirmed through the charity’s own filings and publicly available nonprofit records; NFRF publishes its Form 990s on its website and reports annual program activity and fundraising through its events and campaigns. NFRF operates nationally: it runs an annual 9/11 Stair Climb fundraiser, offers multi‑level peer support and resiliency trainings, coordinates local “fund a need” campaigns for agencies, and has supported agency programs (including peer support K9s and department training) across multiple jurisdictions in recent years.

Notable achievements

Annual 9/11 Stair Climb

Established and operates a high‑visibility annual Stair Climb (held around 9/11) that has drawn hundreds of participants and significant fundraising — for example, the organization reported a large in‑person/virtual climb in 2021 with over 400 participants and six‑figure fundraising to support PTSI programs.

Support for Peer Support K9 Program

Provided material and program support for the San Francisco Fire Department’s peer support/facility K9 program (recognized in a February 2022 SFFD announcement), supplying food, toys and equipment for facility canine teams to aid responders dealing with stress and trauma.

Ongoing Peer Support & Training Delivery

Developed and delivered multi‑level peer support and resiliency training (introductory, basic, advanced), and funded attendance and treatment programs for first responders through direct grants and campaigned funding across multiple departments nationwide.
