Story
The PIERCE Foundation, Inc.
Equipping Heroes with the Tools to Serve
Every day, first responders run toward what the rest of the world runs from. But behind the lights and sirens are real people—exhausted, underpaid, and often overlooked. The PIERCE Foundation was created to change that.
Founded by a career paramedic with over 25 years of frontline experience, The PIERCE Foundation is a nonprofit built to support those who serve not just on the clock, but in life.
We’ve seen too many medics drop out of school because they couldn’t afford tuition. Too many firefighters suffer in silence through trauma. Too many officers struggling to provide for their families after injury or burnout. These aren’t headlines, they’re everyday realities.
That’s where you come in.
Your support helps us:
-
Fund education and training for EMS, fire, and law enforcement professionals
-
Provide emergency financial assistance to first responders in crisis
-
Deliver mental health resources and host wellness events that save lives
-
Invest in leadership development so our heroes can lead with confidence and integrity
We’re not a giant foundation with layers of red tape. We’re boots-on-the-ground, community-first, and driven by one mission: to stand in the gap where systems fall short.
When you give to The PIERCE Foundation, you’re not donating to an idea, you’re directly impacting the lives of the men and women who show up on your worst day. You’re helping them stay in the fight, heal from the trauma, and grow into tomorrow’s leaders.
This is more than charity.
It’s a cause worth backing.
Because when first responders have what they need, everyone wins.
Join us. Stand with them. Make a difference.
The PIERCE Foundation — Hope. Help. Honor.
