Start a Local FRRF Chapter

Thank You for Your Interest in Leading a New Chapter

We’re grateful that you’re considering bringing the First Responder Relief Fund to your community. Local chapters play an essential role in expanding our mission, and interest from people like you helps us continue growing responsibly and effectively.

Bring the Mission to Your Community

We welcome applications from individuals who want to support first responders, build community connections, and lead local volunteer efforts. FRRF helps all manner of first responders - Fire, EMS, police, flight crews, dispatchers, ER staff, and more.

Starting a chapter is a meaningful way to make an impact, and your interest helps guide where we grow next.

You Don’t Have to Do It Alone

The most successful chapter leaders don’t start their journey by themselves—they bring along a few trusted friends, family members, or colleagues who share their passion for supporting first responders. Having a small, committed team from the start makes launching a chapter easier, stronger, and far more enjoyable. And remember, FRRF National is with you every step of the way. We provide playbooks, training, support, and the technology tools you need to get your chapter up and running quickly and confidently.

Ready To Get Started?

While chapter launches depend on readiness, resources, and local needs, completing the application below ensures you're considered as opportunities arise. We’ll review your information and reach out when your area becomes eligible for a new chapter.

Not Quite Ready to Lead? Still Want to Help?

If you’re unsure about running a chapter but still want to be involved, you can:

• Volunteer locally or remotely
• Support special events
• Help spread awareness
• Assist a nearby chapter
• Join our general volunteer list

Every effort, big or small, helps us stand strong for the heroes who stand for us.
