An app for all First Responders, supporters of First Responders, and survivors of fallen First Responders.
If you are Supporting Heroes MEMBER, it is especially for you!
Supporting Heroes is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization created in 2004 to support families of First Responders who fall in the line-of-duty. In addition to providing financial and other direct support to survivors, we assist First Responder and community leaders in properly responding to a line-of-duty death and appropriately supporting surviving family members and others affected.
Supporting Heroes currently serves Indiana, Kentucky, and Missouri, but the app, features, and information are available and pertinent to everyone regardless of location.
While the app contains some MEMBERS ONLY content and features, it is available to all First Responders, supporters of First Responders, and survivors of fallen First Responders.
