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.

Hero Fund America’s dedication to providing grants for training and equipment to these warriors is an essential part of creating a better future for our youth and families.
