Foundation Food Drive
The Foundation Food Drive is a key initiative of The Trauma Survivors Foundation, dedicated to providing meals to first responders and healthcare workers. This effort primarily focuses on law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency medical personnel, and hospital staff who work tirelessly during emergencies and holidays.
Mission: To show gratitude and support for first responders by delivering warm meals and thank-you notes.
Impact: Since its inception, the program has served over 200,000 meals across 126 locations, ensuring that those on the front lines are well-fed and appreciated.
COVID-19 Meal Support Efforts
During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Trauma Survivors Foundation focused its efforts on providing meals to frontline workers.
By April 10, 2020, over 3,500 meals had already been delivered to nurses, doctors, EMS personnel, police officers, and firefighters.
The initiative played a crucial role in ensuring that healthcare workers had access to nourishing meals during one of the most challenging times in recent history.
Thanksgiving Food Drive
The Trauma Survivors Foundation now does an Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. This aims to bring holiday meals to first responders and hospital workers who are on duty during Thanksgiving.
How It Works: Donations go toward purchasing meals from partner restaurants, helping both first responders and local food establishments.
How You Can Help
The foundation relies on donations and community support to sustain these programs. Ways to contribute include:
Monetary Donations: A donation can provide a meal for a first responder while also supporting a local restaurant.
Volunteering: Volunteers can help with meal preparation and delivery.
Business Partnerships: If you’re a local restaurant who would like to collaborate with the foundation to provide discounted or donated meals, please reach out to us!
