Fauquier First Responders Foundation: The Helping Hands for Heroes
Modeled after the Loudoun County foundation, the newly formed Fauquier First Responders Foundation is committed to supporting our local heroes in times of need. Their primary mission encompasses providing immediate financial assistance and community resources to first responders, including the Fauquier County Sheriff’s Office, town police departments, and all fire and rescue department personnel who face hardships with a focus on line-ofduty incidents, such as death and injuries. The foundation provides things that insurance doesn’t cover, such as mortgage and car payments, or utility bills. The board is made up of four members. Board president Kim Jenkins, who was inspired by her son, a Fauquier County career firefighter and paramedic, got the ball rolling by enlisting three other members. Dave Cooper, retired career Fire and Rescue Lieutenant and Fire Marshall with Prince William County, serves as vice president and also heads the Canteen unit noted above. Matt Shields, career member of Fauquier County Fire and Rescue, serves as secretary while Matt Demaree, a volunteer firefighter with the New Baltimore Fire and Rescue Company, serves as treasurer. None of the board members receives compensation

Their secondary mission is to support the Emergency Services Canteen unit that provides sustenance and a restroom to our first responders during large and/or prolonged incidents. The incidents may include large brush fires, structure fires, prolonged law-enforcement incidents or any incident where the first responders could benefit from the services that the Canteen provides. Additionally, they offer scholarships to dependents of first responders who aspire to continue the legacy of service. This mission ensures a future where the safety and wellbeing of first responders and their families are secured. Also covered are volunteers who have been with a department for a minimum of six months, dispatchers, the Laurel Ridge Police, and fire and rescue support members.

for their efforts, and they each make their own financial commitment. Both Matts are also part of the Fauquier Peer Support team, which serves Fauquier County Fire and Rescue members. They regularly reach out to their fellow members after serious incidents to do buddy checks, especially after they have witnessed a horrific event that might lead to PTSD or depression, referring them to available services as needed. The Fauquier First Responders Foundation has a fundraising goal of $500,000 to cover any event that occurs throughout the year. They need your help!
