OUR IMPACTOver $150,000 in grants to first responders fighting cancer.

As I get closer to my one-year anniversary from being diagnosed with cancer, I can say I am cancer free! The hardest part of being a cancer survivor is I know there are hundreds of men and women in fire, EMS, and law enforcement every year who are directly affected by cancer, and may feel they have no hope for financial support.

Foundation 58, you gave my family and me hope! The financial support you provided let my wife concentrate on taking care of me. This was a huge part of my recovery process. Words cannot describe the relief of having the financial support to pay the medical bills!

SINCERELY, ADAM MARTIN

I remember clearly the day Bobby received a phone call from Foundation 58 to ask if they could visit. Soon after they left Bobby was crying. He was overwhelmed by the

thoughtfulness and generosity of FOUNDATION 58. He gave me the check to deposit and asked why they would do that for him. I told him those people at Foundation 58 are children of God and that is how God works. He could not believe people who did not know him would do something that significant. We cried together.

THANK YOU FROM BOBBY SHEA’S FAMILY

On March 3, 2009, my dad lost his battle with cancer. Not a day goes by when I don’t think of him and of the people that stood by us during his long struggle

with cancer. Foundation 58 will always hold a special place in my heart for their dedication to helping others. It is my hope that they continue to succeed in making a difference.

First responders of all types need to stay properly hydrated during active duty. Some organizations struggle to have a proper supply of bottled water readily available to their members. Through this program your logo and company information will be printed on our custom printed bottles of water that will be shipped directly to the first responder organization of your choosing. Each time a first responder hydrates they will know to thank you for your generous donation to their organization.
