Embracing Our Mission

Imagine a world where every 911 operator, firefighter, police officer, and medical professional is armed with the tools, knowledge, and unwavering support to enhance their life-saving capabilities.

Let's paint that future together.

Our grants

Provide funding to elevate the emergency response ecosystem & community

9-1-1 operators, emergency dispatchers, and first responders play a critical role in protecting communities and saving lives during emergencies. However, they often face significant challenges that can hinder their ability to respond effectively. At Living Purpose Foundation, we recognize that equipping first responders with appropriate resources is crucial. We are happy to support local communities with our emergency response grant program.

We’ve established key focus areas based on the most pressing needs of the public safety community. These include:

  • Technology upgrades for emergency response

  • Training and professional development

  • Mental health and wellness programs

  • Equipment modernization

  • Community outreach and education initiatives

Eligibility criteria includes:

  • Applicants must be recognized public safety agencies or a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization supporting first responders

  • Projects should demonstrate clear benefits to the public safety community and the general public

  • Proposals must include measurable outcomes and evaluation plans
