About Thank a First Responder Day

Those we honour for saving lives and protecting our communities shouldn't have to hurt from helping us. 

First responders are ordinary people. They have families, friends, commitments, and homes to go to at the end of their working day. 

Yet, they dedicate every day to protecting our communities and keeping us safe.

All while often receiving little thanks for what they do. We need to change that.
