About This Event

First Responders Children’s Foundation, a national nonprofit dedicated ensuring the children of first responders — police officers, firefighters, corrections officers, paramedics, and 911-dispatchers — have the resources to heal, grow, and thrive, visits the Nasdaq MarketSite in Times Square.

In recognition of the heroism, dedication, and service of first responders and their families across the United States, but especially in times of crisis and in the wake of natural disasters, Jillian Crane, President & CEO of the First Responders Children’s Foundation, ring the Closing Bell.

As first responders risk their lives performing rescues, ensuring public safety, clearing debris, and restoring vital services, they often face the harsh reality that their own homes and families are also deeply affected by the very disasters they work tirelessly to combat. In the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton, the need for support is urgent. FRCF’s Natural Disaster Relief Program is dedicated to providing flexible financial assistance to cover home repairs, childcare expenses, mental health support for children coping with trauma, and a range of other disaster-related costs impacting first responder families during this crisis.
