On 9/11, 343 FDNY firefighters lost their lives in the line of duty, marking the largest single loss in the department's history.
Since 9/11, an additional 343 FDNY members have died from related illnesses, reflecting the ongoing health crisis faced by our brave firefighters.
Firefighters are at increased risk for respiratory illnesses, cancer, and mental health disorders due to their exposure to hazardous materials and traumatic experiences.
Over 11,000 first responders are currently suffering from 9/11-related diseases, with thousands more facing the long-term effects of their service.
The need for comprehensive health support is critical, as many firefighters struggle with PTSD, depression, and anxiety stemming from their heroic work.
Our initiatives include financial aid for medical expenses, mental health support, and advocacy for cancer prevention.
Through your financial contributions, we provide support to the outstanding organizations engaged in combating this epidemic.
We’ve allocated specific funds to address the numerous health challenges confronting our Bravest directly.
You can contribute to the change by volunteering with the Foundation in various ways. Be a part of the transformation!
Our goal is to consistently highlight the health challenges faced by our bravest every day due to their heroic endeavors and to offer the support they rightfully deserve.
From the outset, we recognized the dangers faced by our New York City Firefighters as they tirelessly worked at the site once known as the World Trade Center. As these challenges continue, we are dedicated to providing support in every way we can.
On September 11, 2001, our Founder witnessed the collapse of the World Trade Center and felt a deep responsibility toward the brave FDNY personnel. This led to the creation of the New York Bravest Foundation, Inc., founded to honor their sacrifices and provide essential support in the wake of the tragedy.
Today, the New York Bravest Foundation, Inc. stands as a testament to our enduring commitment. We have grown to support not only individual firefighters but also numerous FDNY organizations, providing essential resources and recognition. Our mission remains unwavering: to support our Bravest with resilience and dedication. We are proud to be part of a community that embodies strength, and our promise to stand by them remains steadfast.
“Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.”
