THE H.E.R.O.S. PROGRAM

HELPING EMERGENCY RESPONSE OFFICERS AND SURVIVORS (H.E.R.O.S.)

Tragedies occur in the lives of Arizona’s public safety officers and firefighters every day; many times these tragedies have nothing to do with their career in public safety.  When an officer or firefighter is affected by a terminal illness, the loss of a spouse or child, or a tragic life altering event, The 100 Club of Arizona coordinates available resources with the needs of public safety families through our Helping Emergency Response Officers and Survivors (H.E.R.O.S.) program.

SAFETY ENHANCEMENT STIPEND (S.E.S.)

Providing Assistance to Public Safety Heroes and Their Families

The 100 Club of Arizona’s Safety Enhancement Stipend (SES) program was created in 2004 to provide assistance to public safety agencies for equipment to enhance the safety of officers and firefighters. The SES Program allows agencies to obtain equipment and training that is otherwise unavailable through other funding. Arizona’s first responders run head first into danger to protect our communities; we want to help protect them while they do that. The Safety Enhancement Stipend program gives agencies the opportunity to obtain crucial safety equipment to keep their first responders safe. In 2022, the Safety Enhancement Stipend program provided $428,530.33 in safety equipment to public safety agencies in need. We look forward to providing more assistance throughout the years to Arizona’s public safety agencies to enhance the safety of our officers and firefighters.
